I've been pilin' on the years
Full of laughter, sometimes tears
I feel thankful for them now
Want to keep them here with me somehow

Thankful
Thankful

When I look at what we've done
When I think of all the fun
I'm thankful for the way I feel
When I look at what is real

Thankful
Thankful

Thankful for the beauty of peaceful Earth
The days of life, the days of birth
If we can stay here for some more
If we can open heaven's door

Thankful
Thankful

Thankful for the life we have
The way we love, the way we love

Thankful
Thankful
