Lyrics
Thanks For The Love Words & Music
by
Linda Edlund
Hold me for this time, dance as we say
Let these be the best times, starting today.
I?ve never felt closer, so safe in your arms
And I?ve never thanked you, for being my friend.
In my life, so many times
I?ve needed you
It?s fine, and it?s alright
So, thanks for the love
My brother
Words left unspoken, feelings rarely shown
Yet still close together, the sharing we have known
In spite of each other, we?re good company.
In spite of each other, we?re still family.
In my life, so many times
I?ve needed you
It?s fine, and it?s alright
So, thanks for the love
My brother
In my life, so many times
I?ve needed you
It?s fine, and it?s alright
So, thanks for the love
My brother
