What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
A lot of things have happened
2
Since the last time we spoke
3
Some of them are funny
4
Some of 'em ain't no joke
5
And I trust you will forgive me
6
If I lay it on the line
7
I always thought you were a friend of mine
8
Sometimes I think about you
9
I wonder how you're doing now
10
And what you're going through
11
The last time I saw you
12
We were playing with fire
13
We were loaded with passion
14
And a burning desire
15
For every breath, for every day of living
16
And this is my Thanksgiving
17
Now the trouble with you and me, my friend
18
Is the trouble with this nation
19
Too many blessings, too little appreciation
20
And I know that kind of notion¡ªwell, it just ain't cool
21
So send me back to Sunday school
22
Because I'm tired of waiting for reason to arrive
23
It's too long we've been living
24
These unexamined lives
25
I've got great expectations
26
I've got family and friends
27
I've got satisfying work
28
I've got a back that bends
29
For every breath, for every day of living
30
This is my Thanksgiving
31
Have you noticed that an angry man
32
Can only get so far
33
Until he reconciles the way he thinks things ought to be
34
With the way things are
35
Here in this fragmented world, I still believe
36
In learning how to give love, and how to receive it
37
And I would not be among those who abuse this privilege
38
Sometimes you get the best light from a burning bridge
39
And I don't mind saying that I still love it all
40
I wallowed in the springtime
41
Now I'm welcoming the fall
42
For every moment of joy
43
Every hour of fear
44
For every winding road that brought me here
45
For every breath, for every day of living
46
This is my Thanksgiving
47
For everyone who helped me start
48
And for everything that broke my heart
49
For every breath, for every day of living
50
This is my Thanksgiving
