I remember what you said that day
Said, be careful what you wish for baby
'Cause it's a crazy world outside
But you've always got a place to hide
Well you've shown me things that I'd never seen
Gave me something that I could believe
All the love you give, it's a healing thing
And I thank you
For the common ground that you shared with me
For the higher ground, the way you lifted me
Now I come to you and you comfort me
And I thank you
I thank you
I, I, I thank you
I, I, I, I thank you
There are chances that I had to take
And mistakes that I just had to make
California Dreams don't all come true
But I could always count on you
Well you've shown me things that I'd never seen
Gave me something that I could believe
All the love you give, it's a healing thing
And I thank you
I thank you baby
For the common ground that you shared with me
For the higher ground, the way you lifted me
Now I come to you and you comfort me
And I thank you
I thank you baby
I, I, I thank you
I, I, I, I thank you
I, I, I thank you
I thank you
I, I, I, I thank you
I remember what you said that day
You always know just what to say
I was blind but now I see
Thank you for forgiving me
Oh yeah
Well you've shown me things that I'd never seen
Gave me something that I could believe
All the love you give, it's a healing thing
And I thank you
I thank you baby
For the common ground that you shared with me
For the higher ground, the way you lifted me
Now I come to you and you comfort me
And I thank you
I thank you baby
I, I, I thank you
I, I, I, I thank you
I, I, I thank you
I, I, I, I thank you
