The Gift that Just Keeps on Giving

Vs1

I’ve been blessed in my life with a wonderful wife

And if you ask me what gives my life meaning

It’s the home that we share and the love I find there

You’re the gift that just keeps on giving

You’re the gift that just keeps on giving

Refrain

Out lives haven’t turned out the way that we planned

Sometimes we’ve been dealt a pretty tough hand

We’ve shared good times and bad and memories joyful and sad

And you’ve been my best friend from beginning to end

So if you ask me what makes life worth living

You’re the gift that just keeps on giving

You’re the gift that just keeps on giving

Vs2

I’ve made my share of mistakes—caused you pain and heartache

Countless times I have needed forgiving

Each time you’ve opened your heart and gave our love a fresh start

You’re the gift that just keeps on giving

You’re the gift that just keeps on giving

Refrain

Out lives haven’t turned out the way that we planned

Sometimes we’ve been dealt a pretty tough hand

We’ve shared good times and bad and memories joyful and sad

And you’ve been my best friend from beginning to end

So if you ask me what makes life worth living

You’re the gift that just keeps on giving

You’re the gift that just keeps on giving

Bridge

Sadly I haven’t said often enough

How much I treasure the gift of your love

And as I searched for a way to share my gratitude

I wrote down the words of this song just for you
