The Gift — текст песни (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
