Lyrics

Thank You Brother
Drew James © 2003
 
I used to take for granted things would last beyond today
And the future when it happened would be oh so far away
Then I’d laugh and light another cigarette
It’s so hard to remember and so easy to forget
 
I used to look through blinders from a narrow point of view
Sometimes I wouldn’t call you for a week or maybe two
And I ever told you how much you meant
And I never thanked you, it’s so easy to forget.
 
Thank you for the good times brother
Thank you for the little things that I won’t leave behind
Thank you for those words when I had none to say
Thank you for the sunshine when those clouds got in the way
 
You know you made me grateful for everything I’ve got
Now I accept life for what it is and for what it’s not
You taught me my best lesson yet
But I never thanked you, it’s so easy to forget.
 
Thank you for the good times brother
Thank you for the little things that I won’t leave behind
Thank you for those words when I had none to say
Thank you for the sunshine when those clouds got in the way
 
 
Now I can look back without regret
And I just want to thank you
And I never will forget
 
(Repeat Chorus twice)
