I Appreciate You Songtext
von Ricki‐Lee

Verse 1:

I remember drawing circles
In the sand down by the water
Young and amazed by the crashing waves
I used to sit alone and wonder
Why I wasn′t like the others
Laughing and playing with their mothers
But now I know she made a sacrifice
So I could have the finest things in life
Chorus:

I'll spend a lifetime just to show you
How I appreciate you
You taught me how to be myself
I′ll walk a million miles
And I'll fall a thousand times
But you taught me how to be myself
Verse 2:


I remember lying in the dark
And feeling sad coz it was so hard
Tears running down my face
And everytime I heard a car go past
I would run up
And look through the glass
Hoping I'd see your face
But now I know she made a sacrifice
So I could have the finest things in life
Chorus:

I′ll spend a lifetime just to show you
How I appreciate you
You taught me how to be myself
I′ll walk a million miles
And I'll fall a thousand times
But you taught me how to be
Bridge:

You taught me how to be indepentent
And you taught me how to stand strong
And I′m the person that I am today
Coz what I went through in those days
She made a sacrifice
To give me the finest things in life
Chorus (2 x):


I'll spend a lifetime just to show you
How I appreciate you
You taught me how to be myself
I′ll walk a million miles
And I'll fall a thousand times
But you taught me how
I′ll spend a lifetime just to show you
How I appreciate you
You taught me how to be myself
I'll walk a million miles
And I'll fall a thousand times
But you taught me how to be myself
