So I’m thinking I could write to you an ordinary letter
But then I thought I’d rather write you one you’ll keep forever

Not the “lovey dovey” kind, or fancy dedication
Just a couple rhymes to show you my appreciation

Thank you for the cards you send me every single year
The ones you send me on birthdays, and when Christmas is near

Thanks for every single smile and every single hug
Thanks for being special, a good friend that I think of

Thanks for being beautiful, thanks for being smart
Thanks for being someone who I miss when we’re apart

Thanks for taking time to call me when you are in town
Thanks for being someone who I like to hang around

Thank you for inspiring me when I wrote “Wanting You”
For being someone that I know, not someone that I knew

Thank you for the words you say and everything that you do
But most of all I want to tell you thanks for being you
