I want to tell you 'cause it's true
I want to tell you in a way that sounds new
It's so old-fashioned but that's the way I feel for you
I'd heard the music of Marvin Gaye

But I finally understood it today
I heard the record like I never had before
And I just want to say thank you for everything you do
Thank you for all the things that you do

Your love and kindness are heaven sent
Now I know exactly what the man meant
When he said, "Thank you for lettin' me be myself"
And now I know without a doubt

Just what Sam and Dave were talking about
You didn't have to, but you did just what you did
And I gotta say thank you for everything you do
Thank you for all the things that you do

You've heard the title a thousand times
Same old message but I'm makin' it mine
'Cause I'm so thankful that you came into my life
And I just gotta say thank you for everything you do
Thank you for all the things that you do
