The Racket

I said, "Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you"
For loving me
I've been searching every minute of life
For what you give me
'Cause if I'm real honest and you know it
It's not always breezy

Took it for granted
Life ain't always what you were handed
Don't be so easily offended
There's some things I learnt to live with
'Cause some things can't be changed

'Cause I make the most of a bad occasion
Without much choice
'Cause I'm still picking up the racket
And I hit the ball (the racket)
As the white feather begins to fall down
Heaven is near
And I wonder if you're out there listening
Forgiveness is real

Took it for granted
Life ain't always what you were handed
Don't be so easily offended
There's some things I learnt to live with
'Cause some things can't be changed

No, you can't break me down
I won't let you bring me down

Take a deep breath
'Cause I'm still picking up the racket
I said
I said, "Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you"
I said, "Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you"
