Thanks To You

By Florisel Martinez

 

Thanks to you, I learned how to walk

Thanks to you, I learned to talk

Thanks to you for teaching me what’s life…..

Thanks, thanks my reason why….

 

Thanks for always dealing with my bad decisions

But also correcting them and making them right.

You told me what’s good and what’s not

You told me what to do and what not

 

Thank you for guiding me through bad times

For helping me wipe away my tears

Thanks to you for bringing me so much joy

As I traveled through the years

 

When I want to talk to someone you’ll listen

Like I’m the last person you’ll ever hear again

 

Thanks for giving me the world

All the sacrifices and the things you did just to see us happy

Thanks to you for making life smile

And now that you’ve taught me how to crawl

And you’ve taught me how to walk

Now it’s time to drive

And time to dive

 

You shine so bright

You make the sun hide

Mother you’re the whole sky
