THANKS TO YOU Words and Music by John L. Christopher, John Denver, Conrad Reeder and Sam Hogin Not so long ago, I packed my bags a hundred times Didn't seem to know how to stop or to unwind Goin' nowhere, a man without a dream Guess my luck star feel the day you came along To my lonely heart you are like a special song Singing sweetly your tender melody Chorus: Thanks to you The child inside me lives again Thanks to you I have found a peace within I know where I'm goin' and what I want to do Thanks to you Lying in your arms I found my greatest pleasure I look into your eyes and dream about forever Wakin' up with you and lookin' forward to the day What we plan to do, knowin' anything at all's okay A life has a meaning Love has got a name Chorus: Chorus: Copyright 1989 by Cherry Mountain Music (ASCAP), Johnny Christopher Music (BMI), Corrie Kale Music (BMI) and Poly Vinyl Music (BMI) From the album THE FLOWER THAT SHATTERED THE STONE
