Carpenters - Thank You For The Music Lyrics
(from the tonight show, 1978)Im nothing special, in fact Im a bit of a boreIf I tell a joke youve probably heard it beforeBut I have a talent, a wonderful thingcause everyone listens when I start to singIm so grateful and proudAll I want is to sing it out loud(*) so I sayThank you for the music, the songs Im singingThanks for all the joy theyre bringingWho can live without it, I ask in all honestyWhat would life be?Without a song or a dance what are we?So I say thank you for the musicFor giving it to meMother says I was a dancer before I could walkShe says I began to sing long before I could talkAnd Ive often wondered, how did it all start?Who found out that nothing can capture a heartLike a melody can?Well, whoever it was, Im a fanRepeat (*)Ive been so lucky, I am the girl with golden hairI wanna sing it out to everybodyWhat a joy, what a life, what a chance!Repeat (*)
