A little pain
And some bandaids
Then it was over.
And this would be my Christmas gift to you.

Oh you wouldn't know
What I gave to you
Or the lovely note
I wrote in pretty
Letters on my skin.

No, you'd never know
It would be the gift
To keep on giving
All year round.

You'd never know
The pain I saved you
That Christmas night
With the gift I gave you

And if you knew
You'd blame me
For the shame
And you'd reject that gift
Although it came
From the bottom of my heart.

But my secret gift
Will be the one
That you'll love most of all.
