Like a Little Child

I want to be there when you open up your presents
This year at Christmastime
I want us to share everything it means to show some love
I want us both to feel that hidden effervescence
This year at Christmastime
When you hold in your hands the very thing you’ve been dreaming of

Open up your presence
And reveal what it is
No point in hiding it from the kids
Open up your presence
We’ve all been waiting a while
You are the very essence of grace and style
Inside your presence
Is the reason for the season when
Even us peasants can afford to smile

I want to be there when you open up your presence
Like a little child
