Mmmm-hmmm
Mmmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-hmmm
I have so much to say
But in the least most simple way, I love you
Oooooh-oooh-oooh-oooh-oooh
I have so much to share
And so to show you how I care
I thank you-ooh-ooh-ooh
I just wanna say thank you for the many things you've done
For havin' faith in me, more than anyone
And when people would have bad things to say
And try to tear me down in the worst possible way
Honey, you stood right by me
And that's how love is supposed to be
I just wanna say
Thank you for the many things you've done
I wanna say thank you for the many things you've done
Lah-dah-dah-dah-dah, lah-dah-dah-dah-dah
I have so much to give
So, for as long as I shall live, I'll love you
Ooh-ooh-ooh-hmm-hmm
I have so much to do just to prove my love is true
'Cause I thank you-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Lord knows I was headed downhill until you came along
Now suddenly life is a song
This happy song I just love to sing
Especially for the joy you bring
Sugar, you stood right by me
And that's how love is supposed to be
I just wanna say
Thank you for the many things you've done
I wanna say thank you for the many things you've done
Lah-dah-dah-dah-dah, ldh-dah-dah-dah-dah, yeah
Thank you for the many things you've done
You've been good to me
And I thank you for the many things you've done
Stood up like the strongest tree
And I thank you for the many things you've done
(Thank you for the many things you've done)
I just wanna thank you for the many things you've done
Said you've been my best friend
(Thank you for the many things you've done)
He-e-e-ey yeah
(Thank you for the many things you've done)
I feel I wanna testify
(Thank you for the many things you've done)
Sweet man's love is the reason why
(Thank you for the many things you've done)
Oooh, I .................. FADE
