Thankful Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Circle 'round like butterflies
Escape the pourin' rain
Run into the alleyways
Steal a little kiss again
You're my only weakness
But somehow, you make me strong
After chasin' ghosts and fairy tales
I'm right where I belong
And I don't know where I've been looking
And I don't care where you have been before

[Chorus]
But I'm thankful to be here
Thankful to feel clear
Thankful my prayers have been answered
I'm thankful you listened
Thankful to heaven
Thankful for feelin' alive again
Thankful that hearts always mend

[Verse 2]
I write it all on paper dolls
Let them play their little games
Of who loves who and what is true
No one ever takes the blame
I see you through the window
And it takes my breath away
And I lose the floor beneath me
And all that's left to say
Is I don't know where I was going
And I don't care where we have been before
[Chorus]
But I'm thankful to be here
Thankful to feel clear
Thankful my prayers have been answered
I'm thankful you listened
Thankful to heaven
Thankful for feelin' alive again
Thankful that hearts always meant

[Bridge]
And I caught rainbows falling down
When I stopped spinning around and around and around

[Chorus]
But I'm thankful to be here
Thankful to feel clear
Thankful my prayers have been answered
I'm thankful you listened
Thankful to heaven
Thankful for feelin' alive again
Thankful that hearts always mend
Thankful my heart always mends

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
