歌詞

You used to say, back in those days

That we were connected in a thousand ways

Even in silence, even apart

I felt the steady beat of your distant heart

Just thinking of you gave me such peace

Watching the worries of the daytime cease

I called you up, acting so small

Saying I was lonely, saying I missed it all

We left the line open, hour after hour

The scent of your life, like a fading flower

The sounds of your room, through the earphone wire

The domestic hum, better than a choir

It felt so familiar, it felt so right

Holding onto the static in the middle of the night

Many times a day, you’d say it again

To the world, to the sun, to the falling rain

"Thank you," you’d say, over and over

Like a secret found in a four-leaf clover

I hadn't done a thing, I was just there

But you showered that word through the open air

It was such a beautiful, wonderful sound

The kindest vibration that I’ve ever found

Even when I heard your business-talk tone

The warmth of your spirit always shone

You’re a man of kindness, anyone can see

In the way you treat the world, and the way you treat me

Those words we often keep locked inside

You let them out, with nothing to hide

Making everyone smile with a simple phrase

Lighting up the corners of their weary days

Naturally, it falls from your lips

Like a golden sun when it slowly dips

"Thank you," "Thank you," so easy and free

A lesson in love that you gave to me

Connecting our lives through a digital thread

While the rest of the world has gone to bed

I’ll never forget the resonance of your voice

Choosing to be grateful, as a simple choice

Many times a day, you’d say it again

To the world, to the sun, to the falling rain

"Thank you," "Thank you," so easy and free

A gift that you’ve given to life and to me

It was such a beautiful, wonderful sound

The kindest vibration that I’ve ever found

The sound of your life

Through the earphone

Thank you

Thank you

A lovely sound

Beautiful rhythm
