Story behind the song
Friendly song about love and guidance.
Lyrics
If I live a thousand years and I shed a million tears
I'd still never learn as much as what I have from knowing you
Between the both of us it was always you who had the brains
If we had to rely on me we'd always lose. We'd never gain
Thank you for guiding me and thank you more for chiding me
Don't know what I'd ever do if it were not for you
You always inspire me to think a better way
As you bring forth a better day
I only wish I could have a heart like you do
You're so much better than I could ever dream to be
You're so much better than me
I used to think I knew it all
In my mind I stood so tall
The one fine day I had a fall
caused mostly by my wherewithal
You have been so kind to me
You speak to me so patiently
You most wholeheartedly have a way with reaching me.
It never goes away
Your great influence every day carries me through the worst of times
I leave it all behind
You must be my guardian angel sent from high above
with a dose of some precious love
I only wish I could have a mind like you do
You're so much brighter than I could ever dream to be
You're so much better than me
You always inspire me to do a better deed
as you fulfill my every need
I only wish I could have a mind like you have
You're so much better than I am.
