Lyrics Kris Kristofferson

Kris Kristofferson

Thank You for a Life

Thank you for a life that I'd call happy

Overlooking all that we've been through

When it comes to loving I've been lucky

Everything I am I owe to you

Thank for the little girls you gave me

Thank you for them bouncing baby boys

Thank you for the sadness

That you saved me from the madness, baby

All I'm crying now are tears of joy

Thank you for that burning sun that's rising

Golden in the air that smells so sweet

Thank you for that empty far horizon

That opens to a new eternity

Thank you for a life that I'd call happy

Overlooking all that we've been through

When it comes to loving I've been lucky

Everything I am I owe to you
