Natalie Cole – The Gift lyrics
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
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
