The Petal Falls - The Gift

I have a gift, especially for you
A box full of dreams I hope they come true
All ribbons and bows I wrapped it myself
Sealed with a promise made to you and no one else

And still it sits there
On the pillow of my bed
Some nights I wish that you were lying there instead
I hear you whisper
Over and over in my head

Ooh baby you saved me
This gift of yours has changed me
And I don't think I'll ever be the same
Cause up till now I couldn't find
Someone who gave me this peace of mind

I have a gift or so I've been told
Of selling myself short and never grabbing hold
Life's opportunities just pass me by
Slipping through my grasp in the blink of an eye

And now it seems, I finally get to dance
I've turned it over and now I want my chance
I hear you whisper
Over and over and over

Ooh baby, you saved me
This gift of yours has changed me
And I don't think I'll ever be the same
Cause up till now I couldn't find
Someone who gave me this peace of mind

I can be obsessive
Yeah I can be possessive
I know it's only human
But still I can't excuse them

Ooh baby you saved me
This gift of yours has changed me
And I don't think I'll ever be the same
Oh no
Ooh baby you saved me
This gift of yours has changed me
And I don't think I'll ever be the same
Oh no
Cause up till now I could never find
Someone who gave me
This peace of mind
I hear you whisper
Over and over and over
