Thanks To You

Thanks to you I've got a reason to get out of bed, make a move or two Thanks to you There's a net below, 'cause otherwise, well, I don't know And thanks to you There are promises of laughs and loves and labyrinths And reason to suspect that I'm meant for this A smile, a song, a tender kiss Thanks to you Thanks to you There's a thing I think I know I really mean or variations on that theme Thanks to you I have time to turn time to cool and time to burn And thanks to you There's something suddenly too good to miss In other words, a way through this And just when one might feel so perfectly alone There's someone else's stuff to trip on besides one's own Thanks to you One can only guess what happens next As it is I balk and stumble through a world gone quite absurd Dodging shadows lurching through the rain I'm not complaining but I'm caught With or without you, I'd have to get through this anyway So where does the genius go when business is slow And even dreaming has a way of scheming to get you down Likely off at some chateau, so how would he know Gets as lonely up there as anywhere Where moving over to make room once seemed impossible It's not impossible That one handed applause That unspoken word That treefall in the forest someone finally heard Thanks to you
