Lyrics

I wanna say thank you (thank you)

Expressing gratitude, thanking someone

You've been more than just a man

Acknowledging the person's significance

You've really been a friend

Highlighting a deep friendship

And I wanna say thank you (thank you)

Reiterating gratitude

You put me to the test

Acknowledging challenges faced together

When I know you could've left me behind

Recognizing the loyalty and choice not to abandon


When I feel like I'm knocked back off my feet

Describing a challenging situation

And I swear I'm all alone

Feeling isolated and in need

You're the one who carries me

Acknowledging the support received

Simple things like giving me your peace

Appreciating simple gestures, like providing peace

You're strong enough to be

Recognizing strength in the person

Exactly what I need

Expressing that the person fulfills specific needs


This is the real thing

Emphasizing authenticity and genuineness

The real thing about us

Reflecting on the essence of the relationship

Welcome to the world

Welcoming someone to the world, possibly a new phase


This is the real thing

Repeating the theme of authenticity and welcome

The real thing about us

-

Welcome to the world

-

Sometimes it's just so dark

Describing challenging times

And I can't see past my hand

Expressing difficulty in seeing a way forward

But you're solid as a rock

Depicting the person as a stable and reliable presence

You're everything I love

Acknowledging love for the person

And I done all that I can

Indicating efforts made

You told me still stand

Encouragement to persevere

When it's said and done

Reflecting on actions taken

I am just what I am

Acknowledging self-acceptance


So much of who we are

Highlighting the influence of those who taught love

Is from who taught us how to love

-

So much of who we are

-

Is from who first taught us how to love

-

This is the real thing

Reiteration of authenticity and welcome

The real thing about us

-

Welcome to the world

-

This is the real thing

-

The real thing about us

-

Welcome to the world

-

This is the real thing

Continued emphasis on authenticity and welcome

The real thing about us

-

Welcome to the world

-

This is the real thing

-

The real thing about us

-

Welcome to the world

-

Maybe we'll make breakfast

Possibly envisioning a future together, making breakfast

Maybe we'll make breakfast

-

Maybe we'll make breakfast

-

This is the real thing

Repeating the theme of authenticity and welcome

The real thing about us

-

Welcome to the world

-

This is the real thing

-

The real thing about us

-

Welcome to the world

-

This is the real thing

-

The real thing about us

-

Welcome to the world

-

This is the real thing

-

The real thing about us

-

Welcome to the world

-

This is the real thing

Final repetition of authenticity and welcome

The real thing about us

-

Welcome to the world
