Thankful Lyrics - Hard Knocks - Joe Cocker

I'm saying goodbye to the loneliness 

Stumbling around in this emptiness 

There ain't no heart when you're feeling so, so low 

I'm saying goodbye to what I know best 

It's harder than failing 'cause I've passed that test 

What's ahead nobody ever really knows 

'Cause all we got is just another chance 

To find what we always had 

And I'm thankful for breathing in the morning 

I'm thankful, you didn't walk right out of here 

I gave you reason to up and leave 

You found a way to stand by me

I'm thankful, I've finally learnt to say goodbye 

To everything that made me wanna give up on life 

I never thought I'll hear me say 

That I'm thankful, so thankful 

I'm saying "Hello" to a lifelong wish 

Loving the moment that I'm standing here 

Breaking the cycle, I'm being mindful 

That's a choice I thought I'd never choose 

I'm so glad I got another chance 

To know just what I always had 

And I'm thankful for breathing in the morning 

I'm thankful, you didn't walk right out of here 

I gave you reason to up and leave 

You found a way to stand by me 

I'm thankful, I've finally learnt to say goodbye 

To everything that made me wanna give up on life 

I never thought I'll hear me say 

That I'm thankful, oh, so thankful

You always told me I should be 

So thankful for breathing in the morning 

I'm thankful, you didn't walk out of here 

I gave you reason to up and leave 

But you found a way to stand by me 

I'm thankful, I've finally learnt to say goodbye 

To everything that made me wanna give up on life 

I never thought I'll hear me say 

Stand by me 

Yeah, thankful for breathing in the morning 

Oh God, I'd didn't wake up to you 

You found a way to still stand by me 

I'm thankful, I've finally learnt to say goodbye 

I never thought I'll hear me say 

That I'm thankful, so, so thankful, yeah
