Thank you, baby
For the years you`ve given me
For each beat of my heart
For every breath i breathe

Thank you, sweetie
For the best times of my life
Through the good, through the bad
You were always by my side

I never thought i`d meet someone
Who loves unselfishly
But i appreciate the way you loved and sacrificed for me

I can`t hold back these tears
Let me cry (although a man`s not supposed to cry)
If i hold back my tears
I`ll just die (you`ve given so much to my life)

Thank you, lady
For the joy you bring to life
When i thought all was lost and gone
You brought hope back in sight

Thank you, honey
For being my best friend
When i thought no one understood
You would always understand

I used to think that i knew love
And what true love should mean
Now i know that i did not know much
`cause you taught me everything

Hook

God so loved the world
That he blessed us all with you
And then he gave me a heart
Now i`m giving it to you
And these tears i cry are tears of joy
My happiness, i do rejoice
In the love you give unselfishly
Your constant sacrifice for me
