Verse 1:
I still remember when music got into my heart
Someone was telling me there's someone singing
the way things are
I couldn't believe the first moment
That music could sound like you do
I'm paying my tribute for loving like I do
'Cause knowing you was knowing me

Thank you for the joy that you gave
Thank you for glimmering night and day
Thank you for the songs we sing and play
You created history
For all the world and for me oh-oh
I wanna thank you for the joy you gave

Since I remember was always a happy new year
No one had ever been singing their music so bright and clear
Though we never admitted we loved you
The future was telling the truth
when dealin' was done all the doubts they were gone
and the winner waved so long

Chorus:

Thank you for the joy that you gave
Thank you for glimmering night and day
Thank you for the songs we sing and play
You created history
For all the world and for me oh-oh
I wanna thank you for the joy you
thank you for the joy you gave

Thank you for the joy that you gave
Thank you for glimmering night and day
Thank you for the songs we sing and play
You created history
For all the world
and for me oh-oh
I wanna thank you
for the joy you
thank you for the joy you
thank you for the joy you
gave
