Eric Folkerth - Thanks Lyrics

For mountains green with Aspen stands
Fluttering like waving hands
For broad lands
I will give thanks
For ember orange sunset glow
Purple skies burning low
The days go
And I will give thanks
For silver incandescent moon
Every midnight howl and swoon
Real soon
I will give thanks
For each moment here
For each memory clear
For each day I wake
For each breath I take
For each pain I bear
For each love I share
Thanks
For berry's taste and coffee's smell
Rituals we learn so well
That fortell
That I will give thanks
For lovers touch and wounds that heal
Friends who laugh and think and feel
When it's real
I will give thanks
For loving those the world rejects
The poor and holy heretics
It connects
That I will give thanks
For each moment here
For each memory clear
For each day I wake
For each breath I take
For each pain I bear
For each love I share
Thanks
Thanks
And is it really all that tough
To believe one word could say enough?
For every blocked and crooked path
For every door that closed too fast
For the past
I will give thanks
For every chance yet to forgive
And every second yet to live
That life gives
I will give thanks
For times when death comes like a friend
And trusting life can never end
It's well then
That I will give thanks
For each moment here
For each memory clear
For each day I wake
For each breath I take
For each pain I bear
For each love I share
Thanks
Thanks
Thanks
