Thank You For Loving Me

I was falling through darkness
I had lost - my way
From the things that were important 
I was very afraid

Traveling down a lonely path
Constantly looking in the past 
My Future was bleak
And I was going no where fast

Then I met you.
Drinking your drink 
As lonely as I was
And just as lost, I think.

I fell in love with you
That first night
I knew at that moment 
You were going to be my knight

You chased away my darkness
You showed me I could be loved
You gave me hope again
And I thank the Lord above

He answered my prayers.
He sent you to me.
For that I am grateful 
Seems we were meant to be

You are a wonderful man.
Taking on so much
For choosing a family
And not a bottle for lunch.

I know I drive you crazy
I know I'm insane.
I feel I am no good for you
But with me you still stay

You are my best friend 
You are my lover 
You are my shoulder to cry on 
I'm glad you're not my brother

Thank you for loving me. 
Thank you for all that you do
Thank for you being there 
Because I am nothing without you.
