A gift or a present is an item given to someone without the expectation of payment. An item is not a gift, if that item, itself, is already owned by the one to whom it is given. Although gift-giving might involve an expectation of reciprocity, a gift is meant to be free. In many countries, the act of mutually exchanging money, goods, etc. may sustain social relations and contribute to social cohesion. Economists have elaborated the economics of gift-giving into the notion of a gift economy. By extension the term gift can refer to anything that makes the other happier or less sad, especially as a favor, including forgiveness and kindness. Gifts are also first and foremost presented on occasions - birthdays and Christmas being the main examples.
In many cultures gifts are traditionally packaged in some way. For example, in Western cultures, gifts are often wrapped in wrapping paper and accompanied by a gift note which may note the occasion, the recipient's name, and the giver's name. In Chinese culture, red wrapping connotes luck. Although inexpensive gifts are common among colleagues, associates and acquaintances, expensive or intimate gifts are considered more appropriate among close friends, romantic interests or relatives.

Who's that girl by the Christmas tree?
With a smile so cute, she is looking at me
I think I'm in love, why don't you introduce me?
I believe your mind has led you astray
Cause the girl you see, she is looking my way
I don't know her
But already she's seduced me
I'd make her the happiest woman, day and night
But I'd never let her out of my sight
Presents are waiting by the Christmas tree
You can have them all, but this one's for me
Look at that lady with the curly hair
With the rum-pa-pum-pum of those ding-a-ling there
She's the kind of person I admire
My dear old friend, get her out of your head
Cause by Christmas Day, she'll be in my bed
Eating chestnuts that we roasted by fire
I mean, just look at her smile, she's the perfect catch
And that's the reason I'm her perfect match
Presents are waiting by the Christmas tree
Those are for you, and this one's for me
Check out the girl in the lovely dress
She's wearing that thing with such a finess
But she's a he, so I wouldn't even bother
Okay, well who's that lady singing Christmas songs?
I'd love those lips to sing all night long
I'm delighted you fancy her, cause that's my mother
Oh. Well, your mother's nice.
Yeah... I know.
There may be love songs, snowflakes in the air
But no matter the snowstorm, I'll always be there
No matter the distance, near or far
My heart is yours, you lucky star
Jingle bells, jingle bells, look at those jingle bells
I'm ready for brand new fairytales
As long as we're adventuring together
You know that girls may leave
But friends will stay
And as long as you're here, I'm feeling okay
Presents are waiting by the Christmas tree
They are for us
