and that place we all will go someday
before you really went away
But we all make a mess of living
We try to make the best of it
We've all got a hurt we're hiding
We've all got someone we mourn
For me I am just grateful,
You were born, you were born,
you were born, you were born
Last time I saw you in our apartment
Putting everything you owned
into a bag slung on your back
Playing hard at grown -ups
till our problems got too big
And you know that they did
We all make a mess of living
We try to make the best of it
We've all got somewhat we're more
For me, I am just grateful
I'm just grateful you were born
You were born, you were born,
I can see you in the half -light
Laughing like it's alright
I see you when I close my eyes
Maybe we're just ghosts now
Mmm, thank God you were born
You were born, you were born
You were born, you were born
You were born, thank God you were born
You were born, you were born
