Thank You Note
Gratitude Melody: Unwrapping Love in a Thank You Note
Lyrics
I deserve a thank you note
I expect acknowledgment and appreciation in the form of a thank you note.
For giving you my presence all year long
I gave you my time and company throughout the entire year.
I deserve a thank you note
I still expect gratitude, and a thank you note is sufficient as a gift.
That's the only present that I want
A thank you note is the only gift I desire.
Honey, all I need beneath the tree is a letter made from you to me
A heartfelt letter from you is all I want beneath the Christmas tree.
Just a thank you note, baby
Emphasizing the simplicity of desiring just a thank you note.
My Christmas wish-list fits on a post-it (post-it)
My Christmas wish-list is minimal, fitting on a post-it note.
I wrote it so big, hoping you'd notice (notice)
I wrote it prominently, hoping you would take notice of it.
Don't spend one cent, a sentence is golden
Monetary gifts are unnecessary; a well-crafted sentence is valuable.
Written by hand, as nice as you can to show you're devoted
Handwritten words express devotion and dedication.
I deserve a thank you note
Reiteration of deserving gratitude for providing presence throughout the year.
For giving you my presence all year long
Continued emphasis on deserving thanks for year-long presence.
I deserve a thank you note
The sole desired gift is still a thank you note.
That's the only present that I want
Reaffirmation that a thank you note is the only present desired.
Honey, all I need beneath the tree is a letter made from you to me
The importance of a letter made by the person as a Christmas gift.
Just a thank you note, baby
Reiteration of the simplicity of wanting just a thank you note.
Stressed out, full house, every December (each one)
Highlighting stress and a full house during the busy month of December.
You sing, "Clean elves, clean shelves" but I'm playing Santa (no fun)
Contrasting the singer's role with the traditional depiction of elves and Santa.
Please show me you recognise it, this night's not meant to be silent
Expressing a desire for recognition and a lively, non-silent Christmas night.
And words speak louder than diamonds on a ring
Emphasizing the value of words over material gifts, such as diamonds.
I deserve a thank you note
Repetition of deserving thanks for providing presence throughout the year.
For giving you my presence all year long
Continued emphasis on deserving thanks for year-long presence.
I deserve a thank you note
The sole desired gift is still a thank you note.
That's the only present that I want
Reaffirmation that a thank you note is the only present desired.
Honey, all I need beneath the tree is a letter made from you to me
The importance of a letter made by the person as a Christmas gift.
Just a thank you note, baby
Reiteration of the simplicity of wanting just a thank you note.
