Have you ever had something to say
But the words just didn't fit?
Where it was right on the tip of your tongue
But you still couldn't think of it?
Yet sometimes you'll pick up a card
And it says exactly what is true
It's funny how hard it seems to be
Just to tell someone Thank You.
So thank you for the open door
The bedspread and the sheets
Thank you for the mornings
When you rubbed my blistered feet.
Thank you for the medicine
When my tummy wasn't feeling right.
Thank you for the stories shared
As you tucked me in at night.
Thank you for the cups of soup
When my cold wouldn't go away.
Thank you for the midnight snacks
When I didn't eat all day.
Thank you for the hugs you shared
And thank you for the kisses.
Thank you for your lovely home
Something I'm sure to misses
