The Gift Lyrics

Official lyrics for The Gift, performed by Natalie Cole.

Written by mark davis & marti sharron Every captain must steer the wheel, not by choice but from the voice That's in his ear, i have lived long and i've done much wrong But i've survived through my lies, i'm still here, so all you people Know what i say is true, that i'm here because of you, i have lived on Yes i've made it through, you've returned your love to me Well i felt fire and i got tired of running from the truth And i let people down, and i wore a crown of being the biggest fool So all you people know what i say is true, that i'm here because of you I have lived on, yes i've made it through, you've returned your love to me There were times i had enough, i almost gave it up But you reached out your heart to me, look what you've done now I've become the best, oh, i'm the best i can be, oh, oh, oh You've returned your love, the gift of love, yes, you gave this gift to me
