Verse 1 You were there when I was broken, when I lost my way You gave me second chances, turned my nights to day I know I wasn’t easy, I know I made mistakes But you kept on believing, for all our sakes Pre-Chorus Every tear you wiped away, every word you’d say Still echoes in my mind today Chorus Thank you anyway, for loving me that way For standing by my side when I had gone astray Thank you anyway, though words get in the way You saved me with your kindness every single day Verse 2 You taught me how to listen, how to see the good You turned my empty spaces into all they could And though we’re miles apart now, I hope you feel this song I carry you within me, you’re where I belong Repeat Pre-Chorus Every tear you wiped away, every word you’d say Still echoes in my mind today Repeat Chorus Thank you anyway, for loving me that way For standing by my side when I had gone astray Thank you anyway, though words get in the way You saved me with your kindness every single day Bridge If I could turn the clocks around I’d say it clearer, say it loud You made me better, showed me how I thank you here, I thank you now Repeat Chorus Thank you anyway, for loving me that way For standing by my side when I had gone astray Thank you anyway, though words get in the way You saved me with your kindness every single day Final Chorus Thank you anyway, for all the love you gave For the roads you paved when I was lost and brave Thank you anyway, for every word you’d say I’m better for your love in every single way
