lyrics

Hey I got you something good it’s...
Not the average kind of good it’s...
Might be boring, it’s not so gory, but it’s...true

I don’t know if you’re gonna to like it but
I put my heart in every part of this
Christmas gift it’s
For you only, so listen closely

Tonight we will give with our hearts and time
We will only be kind
We will only be right here
Tonight we will dance and we’ll sing our songs
We will come as we are
Cus real is better by far it is

Hey you there, I see you smiling I
Like how you look when you’re happy you’re
So much brighter
From inside out
You inspire me

You dance, I’ll cook, she’ll eat, he’ll look
Got all night, no fights
But if you do it’s alright
Cus we’re just family
With all our insanity
There’s no place I’d rather be

Tonight we will give with our hearts and time
We will only be kind
We will only be right here
Tonight we will dance and we’ll sing our songs
We will come as we are
Cus real is better by far it is...my gift to you is my heart
