Lizzie Sider - Thank You lyrics

rate me

It all started at 2 in the morning

When you left the place you called home

All it took was the wave of your little son’s hand

To stay safe wherever you may roam

Now I don’t know what it like to be on the other side

But I do know it’s not easy to say goodbye

So, thank you for all your strength

Thank you for saving me and the lives of the people we love

Thank you for being there, when you could have gone anywhere, and been just

a normal man

Thank you for fighting for me

You sent letters to your house on the corner

And hoped for the same in return

When you finally got that note with your wife’s perfect writing

And Jimmy’s name he wrote with a hand so firm

You pressed it to your heart and felt all that she said

You opened the letter and carefully read

Thank you for all your strength

Thank you for saving me and the lives of the people we love

Thank you for being there, when you could have gone anywhere, and been just

a normal man

Thank you for fighting for me

After ten struggling months, you finally came home

To your family so sweet you’ve missed all along

When you went to church on Sunday you found

All the people from your little town, saying

Thank you for all your strength

Thank you for saving me and the lives of the people we love

Thank you for being there, when you could have gone anywhere, and been just

a normal man

Thank you for fighting for me
