THANKS TO YOU

Words and Music by Alan Harkrader

About the Song:

A song for those who have been together for quite a while.

Lyrics:

Sitting here watching the stars come out, looking over the little valley

Five acres, two dogs and our own country garden

And a cool breeze and you to love me

The problems of the day seem to fade away

Like the sunlight over hills on the horizon

In the night we have ahead of us we’ll give it all away

Like an ageless and youthful fountain



Sitting here watching the moon come up, and it lights up the little valley

The years of you and me offer treasured memories

As we recall some special moments together

We laugh about some silly thing that happened long ago

But for us, it could have happened yesterday

In the ocean of our love there is this peaceful ebb and flow

And tonight the stars invite us both to say



Thanks to you, my life turned out this way

Thanks to you, I look forward to each day

Thanks to you it turned out right

And with you, I look forward to each night,

Thanks to you
