Before This Time Another Year

I look back on all those years, To see how far I've come and grown; I took a trip down memory lane, And what I see how joy; But every step I've taken, From my childhood till this day; You've been there by my side, You always there for me. *And through it all, It took so many years just to know; What you mean to me, Thank you for those blessed years; You're my own, I don't wanna live my days without you, I love you Lord; Really ain't no words, strong enough to let you know, What you mean to me through all these years. You put me up when I fall, You gave me strength to stand again; As the cold wind blows you embrace me, With your warm and gentle soul, You've touched my life, my heart and soul; In so many different ways, You've made me who I am and what I am today. And through it all, It took so many years just to know; What you mean to me, Thank you for those blessed years; You're my own, I don't wanna live my days without you, I love you Lord; Really ain't no words, strong enough to let you know, What you mean to me through all these years. And through it all, It took so many years just to know; What you mean to me, Thank you for those blessed years; You're my own, I don't wanna live my days without you, I love you Lord; Really ain't no words, strong enough to let you know, What you mean to me through all these years. I look back on all those years, To see how far I've came and grown.
