Once upon a time I walked an easy road
  Didn't think I needed anyone.
  I could make it on my own
  Never thought about tomorrow, just livin' day to day
  Never thought these clouds would come along
  And bring me so much pain
  When my world was upside down
  I didn't think that I could make it,
  Reached out my hand for you
  And you were there to take it
    [Chorus]
  I wanna thank you
  For being my strength when I thought I couldn't go on
  And I wanna thank you
  be,
  'til I get over you
    [Verse 2]
  Walked through the park, in the evening air
  I heard a voice and I thought you were there
  I run away but I just can't escape
  Memories of you everywhere
  They say that time will dry the tears
  But true love burns for a thousand years
  Give my tomorrows for one yesterday
  Just to know that I could have you here
    [Bridge]
  When will this river of tears stop fallin'
  Where can I run so I won't feel alone
  Can't walk away when the pain keeps callin'
  I've just gotta take it from here on my own
  But it's so hard to let go
