Johnny Cash, June Carter Cash - The Loving Gift lyrics

[Johnny Cash, June Carter Cash - The Loving Gift lyrics]

You gave me a blanket to
Keep me from the cold
You gave me a song I learned to sing
You showed me some beauty through
The windows of your soul
And you showed me a world I've never seen

Each giving to the other love
And giving it away
We spent the precious time
We knew was borrowed
Because you gave me the courage
To live with yesterday
And you gave me tomorrow

You brought me a candle to
Light my way to bed
You erased those shadows I'd been seeing
You brought me a pillow to rest my weary head
You taught me a gentle way of dreaming

And even if you leave me I'll
Be richer when you go
I'm richer with the loving gift you gave me
Because you gave me a blanket to
Keep me from the cold and you gave me a baby
