I want to tell you 'cause it's true   I want to tell you in a way that sounds new   It's so old-fashioned but that's the way I feel for you   I'd heard the music of Marvin Gaye      But I finally understood it today   I heard the record like I never had before   And I just want to say thank you for everything you do   Thank you for all the things that you do      Your love and kindness are heaven sent   Now I know exactly what the man meant   When he said, "Thank you for lettin' me be myself"   And now I know without a doubt      Just what Sam and Dave were talking about   You didn't have to, but you did just what you did   And I gotta say thank you for everything you do   Thank you for all the things that you do      You've heard the title a thousand times   Same old message but I'm makin' it mine   'Cause I'm so thankful that you came into my life   And I just gotta say thank you for everything you do   Thank you for all the things that you do
