Thank God for You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Crescent City disappearing in the rear-view mirror Just like she's always done Spent my life running from the ghosts of the Vieux Carré That dirty spillway water in the noonday sun [Verse 2] The Daughters of Charity left their mark on me Keeping secrets, well, it just makes you feel alone Magazine Street stole from me And I never thought I'd find my way home [Chorus] I thank God for you I thank God for you Wake up in the morning, I thank God for you I thank God for you I thank God for you Wake up in the morning, I thank God for you [Verse 3] I was just another junkie jonesing on a Greyhound bus With a 20-year ticket to a tortured mind Sirens, sorrow, cigarette butts My Jesus in pieces, broken as the highway lines [Chorus] Thank God for you I thank God for you Wake up in the morning, I thank God for you I thank God for you I thank God for you Wake up in the morning, I thank God for you [Bridge] You gave me something no one can take away You saw through me and loved me anyway [Chorus] Oh, I thank God for you I thank God for you Wake up in the morning, I thank God for you Thank God for you I thank God for you Wake up in the morning, I thank God for you
