Lyrics Jean Shepard

Jean Shepard

I'll Thank You All My Life

For overlooking what I've been

And saying you love me

You'll never know just what it means

That from my past

I'm free for seeing the real me

Believe my lonely gaitest guys

For looking right into my heart

I'll thank you all my life

I saw you in a crowd that night

You were different from the start

I fell for you but never hoped that I could win

Your heart, I'll ask the good Lord up above

I'll ask him every night

Who make me worthy of your love

I'll thank you all my life

Oh I'll love you a thousand years

And faithful I will be for giving me a love that's real

A dream that I can see

Once down the wrong road I was led

By faithless love and life

For making me believe again

I'll thank you all my life

For house that's ours

And I don't care if it is large or small

Some boys and girls that I don't care

If they are short or tall

For overlooking what I've been

My past and wasted life

And giving all of this to me

I'll thank you all my life
