Gift Of The Magi Lyrics - Singles - Squirrel Nut Zippers

Jim: My heart is sad, my soul is weary 

Though Christmas day is fast appear 

I have no silver I have no gold 

To buy my wife a gift this year 

To see her sad on Christmas morning 

Is a thing I cannot bear 

I'll pawn the watch my father gave me 

To buy a come for her hair 

Katharine: 

Oh Mother, Mother what shall I do? 

Though Christmas day is fast appear 

I have no silver I have no gold 

To buy my love a gift this year 

For I am poor and I'm a beggar 

Not a cent have I, no dime I claim 

I'll trade the golden hair that is our pleasure 

Buy for your watch a golden chain 

Jim: 

Darling, darling today is Christmas 

What has become of your golden hair 

For I've traded our only treasure 

These silver combs for you to wear 

Katharine: 

Darling, darling we've lost our treasure 

My gift to you is a golden chain 

Though we've pawned away our only pleasures 

These gifts we give are not in vain 

All: 

The wise men came on Christmas morning 

Their gifts of love they came to bear 

From that day on always remembered 

Our own true love forever share
