If I Could Wrap up a Kiss

If I could wrap up a kiss

I'd wrap it in Christmas paper

A gift to someone I miss

And dream is still holding me

I can't trust mistletoe

Or ever know it's willing to be there for me

Can't spend Christmas Eve

Standing under its leaves

Just hopin' that you might show

If I could wrap up my heart

I'd tie it with scarlet ribbons

So you could tell it apart

From all other gifts you've got

You would see it and know

Loosening the bow was all that it would take

To lessen the ache

And you would unwrap the kiss

I had sent to you

Season's greetings gift wrapped to make

You see that I just cannot live

For by chance meetings that always take

Much more out of me than they ever seem to give

Season's greetings gift wrapped to make

You see that I just cannot live

For by chance meetings that always take

Much more out of me than they ever seem to give

If I could wrap up a kiss

Just wrap it in Christmas paper

I let you wrap it up again

A gift to someone I miss

And dream is still holding me

Oh, I can't trust mistletoe

Or ever know it's willing to be there

For little old me

I'm gonna wrap up a kiss

'Cause it's you that I miss

I'm gonna wrap up a kiss

And send it off to you
