The Gift of Life Lyrics

When I sit and then look back it feels like yesterday

The phone call that I had I didn't think it could be true

I don't know what to say as I write this song for you

As I write down all the words thinking what to say

I don't even know who you are or even where you're from

But you mean so much to me to receive this gift of life

I raise a glass each year and see how far I've come

Each day that passes each year that goes by I will always think of you

I see how far I've come and the number that I see

Another year to celebrate your kidney looking after me

It's been on lots of trips looking out at the sea

I will never forget the gift of life and what you did for me

When I sit and then look back it feels like yesterday

The phone call that I had I didn't think it could be true

I don't know what to say as I write and think of you

As I write down all the words thinking of what to say
