Day At The Fair - Thankful lyrics

[Verse 1] When we were kids, we said things when we said them And what was said, we meant it These days we rarely speak much at all Wake up and come home Fall asleep on the couch and wake up with the television on When I was young, I was full of dreams and wonder Without a dime to sleep under These days I rarely sleep much at all Grow up and grow old We deal with what's dealt and you carry yourself And wake up with the television on Some say the best part's how it ends When you look back on how the whole damn thing began Let's start it all again [Chorus] I have made mistakes and I live with them I'm okay 'cause I'll grow old with them But the least of my problems are how quick I'll solve them Somehow, somewhere, sometime [Verse 2] When I was young, I was dismal and enchanted There were things I took for granted These days I count the stars when I'm home Alive in love Where it's taken so long to right what I've wronged And be proud of everything that I have done There's those things that make me feel old now It's the mirror in my parents' old house When I see who I am now [Chorus] I've made mistakes and I live with them I'm okay, I'll grow old with them Let the least of my problems be how quick I'll solve them Somehow, somewhere, sometime [Bridge] I never thought I'd love the way I used to 'Til the first day that I saw my daughter's smile Thank you, angel Haven't felt this alive in a while If there's anything that I could ever teach you It's to live those dreams you have and see them through 'Cause your best attempts at happiness Are doing what you love the best Know that I will always be with you Reminding you [Chorus] You'll make mistakes and you'll live with them It's okay, you'll grow old with them Let the least of your problems be how quick you solve them Somehow, sometime And when faith is wearing thin Reign it in and bring it home again Stay true to each promise Be strong and be honest It's yours, your time is now [Outro] Every stepping stone I stubbed my toe on was worth it Every time I failed, I knew that I knew I deserved it Every time I woke up feeling nothing shy of worthless I can look at you at night and everything is perfect I can picture you when I'm walking along a shoreline I'll swear forever 'cause forever is on your time You'll get there somehow Feet, don't fail me now If I ever learned anything at all, it's to be thankful It's to be thankful
