[Verse: Chuck Inglish]
I don't need much but a blunt
All I ever wanted from the world is the love
A tear dropped down to my foot
Could never underestimate the steps that it took
To write a good book, seeing how the words look on it
Breaking down a line, I have you hooked on phonics
Gifts from the author, a memoir
I saw this, all these pictures in my mind
That's where I find where I lost
I want to give it to you as a present in a box
Bow-tie the ribbon, I could wrap it round your heart
Clearing all the clouds while we look up at the stars
There will never be a better love, El Debarge
Now lets begin again where we started
Feel the separation as it grows into a flower
I realize that you've got a lot of power
Just to show appreciation here's my message in a bottle, baby

[Chorus: Joyce Wrice]
I got something I want to give to you
Thankful, thankful, thankful
I got something I want to sing to you
Grateful, grateful, grateful

I could only ever imagine
How things could have happened
Had we met each other at a different function
