I was young (BOP)
And didn't have nowhere to run
I needed to wake up and see
What was in front of me
Nah, Nah, Oh
There had to be a better way
To show I'm grateful, hmmmmm
So I thought up this song
To show my appreciation for lovin' me so long
You don't know much you mean to me
Cause even though when times got rough
You never turned away
You were right there
And I thank you, thank you
When I felt I had enough
You never turned away
You were right there
And I thank you, thank you
All through my life
I knew that you'd be my world
Knowing everywhere I go
Things you taught me they would show
So many times and changes
You've seen me through
I sure enough couldn't have survived without you
And so I thought up this song
To show my appreciation for lovin' me so long
You don't know how much you mean to me
Cause even though when times got rough
You never turned away
You were right there
And I thank you, thank you
When I felt I had enough
You never turned away
You were right there
And I thank you, thank you
Cause even though when times got rough
You never turned away
You were right there
And I thank you, thank you
When I felt I had enough
You never turned away
You were right there
And I thank you, thank you
