Song Lyrics along with Inspiration from Marie...
HOW CAN I EVER THANK YOU?
Written By: Karen Loveless/Marie Siemens
V1:
I colored pretty pictures/With my Crayola crayons
I'd sign em' to Mom from me/They framed the fridge with TLC
You'd tuck me into bed and say/it's time for us to pray
You said the Lord would always be/Forever there for me
And so would you/no matter what/and in that I could trust
The heart prints of a mother to her son
C:
How can I ever thank you/for all that you've done
You've taught me so many things about unconditional love
Life lessons that I've learned from you/Will be carried on…
How Can I ever thank you enough?
V2:
The good ole' days of high school/I was hangin' with my friends
I didn't have much time for you/But somehow you always knew
That I would figure out life's maze/ it was a teenage phase
Runnin' round bein' wild/cuttin’ up like a child
When times we're rough/you would say/never will I go away
The teachings of Mother to her Son
C:
How can I ever thank you/For all that you've done
You've taught me so many things about unconditional love
Life lessons that I've learned from you/will be carried on
How Can I ever thank you enough?
Bridge
You've watched me grow from a boy into a man
And because of you I am who I am
Now that I'm a Dad I understand, so…
C:
"I just want to Thank You"/for all that you've done
You've taught me so many things about unconditional love
Life lessons that I've learned from you/are being carried on
How Can I ever thank you enough?
How Can I ever thank you enough?
