[ Featuring Alison Krauss ]
I had it all
Then I started to fall
I turned away from all the things that mattered
Got lost in the dust
No one to trust
My world came crashing down and shattered
Then you came along
My shelter from the storm
I put my life into your hands
And you made me a better man
And now I'm thankful for the love you've shown
Your love for me I've never known
Thankful for the stars above
Hoping for more peace and love
Thankful when the sun is shining
Day by day, I'm really trying
Thankful for this moment here
And thankful you are here
I needed a friend
To help me along
I needed somebody here to help me sing my song
Now I have good days
I'm changing my ways
And it's a beautiful day
Here in California
And when you came along
My shelter from the storm
I put my life into your hands
And you made me a better man
And now I'm thankful for the love you've shown
Your love for me I've never known
Thankful for the stars above
Hoping for more peace and love
Thankful when the sun is shining
Day by day, I'm really trying
Thankful for this moment here
And thankful you are here (thankful you are here)
You are here
