Now you're the one
You want to be though
To know it's far from me
But it's your choice
What can I say
I don't want to stand in your way

Someone else takes care of you
Does all the things
I couldn't do

For the patience and the care
Even when I wasn't there
For the letters and the fun
And the journeys to the sun
For the days and for the nights
For having been who you were
For the laughters and the smiles
And for your hand in my hand

I am grateful

What I know
I learned with you
What I learned
I owe to you

There's no anger
Little sorrow
That will be swift to go
Rather see you
Well with him
Than a shadow
Next to me

For the patience and the care
Even when I wasn't there
For the letters and the fun
And the journeys to the sun
For the days and for the nights
For having been who you were
For the laughters and the smiles
And for your hand in my hand

I am grateful

For the days and for the nights
For having been who you were
For the laughters and the smiles
And for your hand in my hand

I am grateful
