Watched the night fall in
From a New York City sky already rainin'
Another taxicab
Is droppin' off a fare
To somebody waitin' there
Across that cafe floor
Soaked to the skin but still not complainin'
Through that open door
In slow motion I saw you
Really nothin' I could do
It's a crazy town out there in a cold and wet December
I stumbled through my openin' line
It's a heartbeat frozen that will stay with me forever
That first time that you smiled
Thank you for a lifetime in the moment that we shared
Thank you for the first time that you kissed me and you cared
For the shoulder
Every time I stop believin' in myself
You do
Thank you
For every time you say
That you wouldn't want me any other way
And if I disagree
You can fix me with that smile
It makes everything alright
You took a chance on someone lost not even knowing
And found a path to bring them home
It helps me face the world out there
When I remember
What it felt like on my own
Thank you for a lifetime in the moment that we shared
Thank you for the first time that you kissed me and you cared
For the shoulder
Every time I stop believing in myself
You do
In this movie there's just me and you
And it never ends if we don't want it to
Everything I dreamed is coming true
Before we slip away
I just need to say
Thank you
For watching football with me late into the night
And when I'm craving for that coffee
You're the one that makes it right
For the Sunday morning sleep-ins
When I've been working through the night
I wanna say to you
Thank you
Oh thank you
Thank you
Thank you
I wrote this song for you
Thank you for a lifetime in the moment that we shared
Thank you for the first time that you kissed me and you cared
For the shoulder
Every time I stop believing in myself
You still do
Oh thank you
Oh thank you
I wanna thank you
