Lyrics
I've known it all along
You'd return to Mother Earth
Now that time has come
That knowing doesn't stop the hurt
Before you set off on your way
Please allow me 'cause I forgot to say
Thank you for everything you did for me
Thank you for friendship and for family
Thank you for your lasting positivity
Thank you you will live on in my memory
Thanks for all you did for me
You fought through all the years
Now we lay you down to rest
I'm holding back the tears
And the words our hearts cannot express
Picture you at peace in the clouds
Let's all join hands and together sing aloud
Thank you for everything you did for me
Thank you for friendship and for family
Thank you for your lasting positivity
Thank you you will live on in my memory
Thanks for all you did for me
Dust we are and to dust we all return
That's been the way since the dawn of man
Thanks for leaving your spirit behind
We dedicate to you and sing this one more time
Thank you for everything you did for me
Thank you for friendship and for family
Thank you for your lasting positivity
Thank you you will live on in my memory
Thank you my everything from A to Z
Thank you for wisdom that you gave for free
Thank you for peace and love and harmony
Thank you may your fire burn eternally
Thanks for all you did for me
Thank you
Thank you for being a friend and for being my family
Thank you for being a satellite in my world
Someone I can turn to for advice and support
Thank you for being a blessing in my life
Thank you for bringing me hope when all seemed doomed
For helping me to appreciate the little things
And that life's not all about the big things
Thank you for the lessons about learning to love everybody equally
And not to be judgemental
When we judge others in most cases we judge ourselves
Thank you for helping me to understand the power of forgiveness
And for cutting ties with negative thoughts and emotions
Thank you for teaching me that to react with anger is the easy option
And not to take on the anger of others
Doing so we lose the chance of a little serenity
That we will never get back
Now I realise my thoughts and actions must be conscious
Must be deliberate must be considered
Not simply adopted because someone tells me I must
I am responsible
Thank you for reminding me to be myself
I am the best version of me
And no-one can do you better than you can
So thank you
