I'm grateful for the songs that come to me
I'm grateful for your words, you help me breathe
If I could write a song, just for thee
It would not take long... To find a melody
I'm grateful for my life here on earth
I'm still a kid and I laugh and learn
And I'm grateful for the death that waits for me
'Cause wonder cannot last... Eternally
If I could write a song
To thank you for being next to me
You know I would, for all you've done
'Cause you're the most beautiful melody
If I could write a song
To thank you for being next to me
You know it would be sung
'Cause you're the most beautiful melody
Mmm-mm
I'm grateful for the wind, makin' me free
I'm grateful for my friends, we are a team
I'm grateful for my eyes, they help me see
But when I close them I... Hear your melody
If I could write a song
To thank you for being next to me
You know I would, for all you've done
'Cause you're the most beautiful melody
If I could write a song
To thank you for being next to me
You know it would be sung
'Cause you're the most beautiful melody
Mmm-mm
If I could play with time
Let's just say I would hit rewind
To that moment I made you smile
Running backwards across the finish line
It was cold outside, but we did not mind
You pushed me aside, and it felt just right
Even though we fell, and it hurt so bad
We fell in love and that's what counts
Not the tumbling down on the hard ground
If I could write a song
To thank you for being next to me
You know I would, for all you've done
'Cause you're the most beautiful melody
If I could write a song
To thank you for being next to me
You know it would be sung
'Cause you're the most beautiful melody
Mmm-mm
Mmm-mm
