Brian McKnight Thank You (For Saving My Life) lyrics

You found me
At the bottom of a bottle
Drownin'
In the deaths of my sorrow
A stranger
Gone too far to forgive
Dying with no will to live

Then you held me
So close to your heart
And you told me
It's gonna be alright

You're the reason
That I'm still alive
These are more than
Just words that I write
This is love that we're making
There ain't no mistaking
For you I've been waiting
Thank you for saving my life

You came to me
Put your hand in my hand
Salvation
From my demons within
Escape from a definite end
When like you said
I could win

Then you showed me
What life should be like

Cause I have you
Right here by my side

You're the reason
That I'm still alive
These are more than
Just words that I write
This is love that we're making
There ain't no mistaking
For you I've been waiting
Thank you for saving my life

This is the way it should be
You're opened my eyes
And now I can see
This is the way
I wanna stay
For now
For the rest of my life

You're the reason
That I'm still alive
These are more than
Just words that I write
This is love that we're making
There ain't no mistaking
For you I've been waiting
Thank you for saving my life
Thank you for saving my life
