Vanessa Peters - Grateful Lyrics
You can ask the pilotIf he can pull the plane out of a diveAnd he will tell you with every timeWe are lucky just to flyAnd we should be gratefulTo be like the birdsEven they fall from the sky sometimesWe should be gratefulTo be like the birdsSpread your wings and cast your fear asideAnd you can ask the surgeonIf he can pry your heart out of your mindAnd he will tell you with dry eyesThere’s a reason they’re entwinedAnd you should be gratefulTo feel so muchMost people just bury it insideYou should be gratefulTo be on this courseWhere reason and empathy collideAnd you can ask the preacherIf he can pull the man out of his slideAnd he will tell you with bright eyesMan's a victim of his prideWe should be gratefulTo just be aliveDig your heels in, get through the dayWe should be gratefulTo just be aliveYour armor’s heavy, but try to be brave
