Thankful

I´m saying goodbye to the loneliness
Stumbling around in this emptiness
There ain´t no heart when you´re feeling so, so low
I´m saying goodbye to what I know best
It´s harder than failing ´cause I´ve passed that test
What´s ahead nobody ever really knows
´Cause all we got is just another chance
To find what we always had
And I´m thankful for breathing in the morning
I´m thankful, you didn´t walk right out of here
I gave you reason to up and leave
You found a way to stand by me
I´m thankful, I´ve finally learnt to say goodbye
To everything that made me wanna give up on life
I never thought I´ll hear me say
That I´m thankful, so thankful
I´m saying "Hello" to a lifelong wish
Loving the moment that I´m standing here
Breaking the cycle, I´m being mindful
That´s a choice I thought I´d never choose
I´m so glad I got another chance
To know just what I always had
And I´m thankful for breathing in the morning
I´m thankful, you didn´t walk right out of here
I gave you reason to up and leave
You found a way to stand by me
I´m thankful, I´ve finally learnt to say goodbye
To everything that made me wanna give up on life
I never thought I´ll hear me say
That I´m thankful, oh, so thankful
You always told me I should be
So thankful for breathing in the morning
I´m thankful, you didn´t walk out of here
I gave you reason to up and leave
But you found a way to stand by me
I´m thankful, I´ve finally learnt to say goodbye
To everything that made me wanna give up on life
I never thought I´ll hear me say
Stand by me
Yeah, thankful for breathing in the morning
Oh God, I´d didn´t wake up to you
You found a way to still stand by me
I´m thankful, I´ve finally learnt to say goodbye
I never thought I´ll hear me say
That I´m thankful, so, so thankful, yeah
Stumbling around in this emptiness
There ain´t no heart when you´re feeling so, so low
I´m saying goodbye to what I know best
It´s harder than failing ´cause I´ve passed that test
What´s ahead nobody ever really knows
´Cause all we got is just another chance
To find what we always had
And I´m thankful for breathing in the morning
I´m thankful, you didn´t walk right out of here
I gave you reason to up and leave
You found a way to stand by me
I´m thankful, I´ve finally learnt to say goodbye
To everything that made me wanna give up on life
I never thought I´ll hear me say
That I´m thankful, so thankful
I´m saying "Hello" to a lifelong wish
Loving the moment that I´m standing here
Breaking the cycle, I´m being mindful
That´s a choice I thought I´d never choose
I´m so glad I got another chance
To know just what I always had
And I´m thankful for breathing in the morning
I´m thankful, you didn´t walk right out of here
I gave you reason to up and leave
You found a way to stand by me
I´m thankful, I´ve finally learnt to say goodbye
To everything that made me wanna give up on life

So thankful for breathing in the morning
I´m thankful, you didn´t walk out of here

I never thought I´ll hear me say
That I´m thankful, so, so thankful, yeah
