Cold Holiday: I Got You A Gift

Share This Post

“I Got You A Gift” is the 2022 holiday single by Cold Holiday.

It’s the night before Christmas so I got you a gift
I thought if I didn’t you’d wonder where it is
Just a little something the overnight guy at the drugstore picked
But I bought it and brought it so you might as well open it

It doesn’t measure up to what I gave you when we met
When I wrapped it and signed it to make sure you knew what I meant
Every day after that I told I’d give you everything I had to give
And I guess in a way tonight I still did

Christmas Eve, we lit candles as we listened to the choir
But they all burned down and we found we had run out of fire
Then you’d go to your party saying I had to work
And I’d say at mine you were sick
Keeping each other’s secrets is the last gift we give

It’s the night before Christmas so I got you a gift
I thought if I didn’t you’d wonder where it is
Just a little something the overnight guy at the drugstore picked
But I bought it and brought it so you might as well open it
