Thank You for a Life

Thank you for a life that I'd call happy

Overlooking all that we've been through

When it comes to loving I've been lucky

Everything I am, I owe to you

Thank you for the little girls you gave me

Thank you for them bouncing baby boys

Thank you for the sadness that you saved me from the madness, baby

All I'm crying now are tears of joy

Thank you for that burning sun that's rising

Golden in the air that smells so sweet

Thank you for that empty far horizon

That opens to a new eternity

You know I'm grateful for the freedom

And the chances

And every little piece of sweetness

That I've known

And I'm grateful for the justice

And the mercy

And all the truth and beauty

I've been shown

So thank you for a life that I'd call happy

Overlooking all that we've been through

When it comes to loving I've been lucky

Everything I am, I owe to you
