I thank you, you turn my life around
Without you, true love never could be found
You see all my life I've been lonely, sad and blue
I thank you for all the things you do

And without you, true love never could be found
All my life I've been lonely, sad and blue
Oh, I thank you for all the wonderful things you do

First I thank you for understanding
And not being so demanding
I thank you for caring when nobody else cared
I thank you for just being there

And the thoughts and you're always by my side
Never letting me go and letting me know
That you care, you love me

Well, I thank you for turning my life around
'Cause without you, true love never could be found
You see all my life I've always been so blue
And I thank you for all the things you do

I thank you for turning my life around
I thank you for the love I truly found
Because without you I've been lonely, sad and blue
I thank you for all the sweet things you do

I thank you for turning my life around
'Cause without you, true love never could be found
All my life I've been lonely, sad and blue
Now with you, I know just what love can do
