For my mother, Claribel Edith Steinwall (1939-2022)
lyrics
Thank You
I remember as a child
The future spread out like an endless sea
But you helped me raise my sails
Taught me not to be afraid
When I first felt the wind
Now time has given me
The chance to say what I have always known
That every battle I have won
Every song that I have sung
Were from the seeds you’ve sown
Chorus:
Thank you for life
Thank you for loving me
I’ve always felt
Your quiet strength
Beneath my feet
I know you’d gladly crawl
To let me fly above it all
Thank you for life
Thank you for loving me
And we are fallen leaves
The river grabs us and we move along
Takes us swirling on our way
Spinning through the rush of days
As they go on and on
But there’s star that does not change
Always flickers when I feel alone
It’s the love that never dies
It’s the same unbroken line
That leads me home
Chorus
