I wanna say thank you (thank you)
You've been more than just a man
You've really been a friend
And I wanna say thank you (thank you)
You put me to the test
When I know you could've left me behind
When I feel like I'm knocked back off my feet
And I swear I'm all alone
You're the one who carries me
Simple things like giving me your peace
You're strong enough to be
Exactly what I need
This is the real thing
The real thing about us
Welcome to the world
Sometimes it's just so dark
And I can't see past my hand
But you're solid as a rock
You're everything I love
And I done all that I can
You told me still stand
When it's said and done
I am just what I am
So much of who we are
Is from who taught us how to love
So much of who we are
Is from who first taught us how to love
This is the real thing
The real thing about us
Welcome to the world
Maybe we'll make it til breakfast This is the real thing
The real thing about us
Welcome to the world
