Here It Is
Over The Rhine

I cried when I wrote this, I’ll always remember

The worst kind of lonely is alone in December

The act of forgiveness is always a mystery

The meltin’ of ice and the future of history, yeah


Some call it obsession, I call it commitment

I make my confession, I make it in public

I hope that it’s helpful, that others can use it

That it’s more than my ego, my need to abuse it


I’m wrappin’ up my love this Christmas

I’m wrappin’ up my love this Christmas

I’m wrappin’ up my love this Christmas

And here it is


The leaves on the oak tree hold on through the winter

They’re brown and they’re brittle and they clatter together

I can’t seem to let go, I’m so scared of losin’

The deeper the love goes, the deeper the bruisin’, yeah


The trouble with talkin’ is it makes you sound clever

And the trouble with waitin’ is you’ll just wait forever

There’s a loop of excuses that plays in your mind

And makes the truth even harder to find


I’m wrappin’ up my love this Christmas

I’m wrappin’ up my love this Christmas

I’m wrappin’ up my love this Christmas

And here it is


When they blow Gabriel’s horn, rip fiction from fact

I wanna get caught in some radical act

Of love and redemption, the sound of warm laughter

Some true conversation with a friend or my lover, yeah


Somewhere down the road we’ll lift up our glass

And toast the moment and the moments past

The heartbreak and laughter, the joy and the tears

The scary, scary beauty of what’s right here


I’m wrappin’ up my love this Christmas

I’m wrappin’ up my love this Christmas, yes

I’m wrappin’ up my love this Christmas

And here it is


Oh, here it is

Oh, oh, oh, here it is, yeah

Oh, oh, here it is

Here it is
