To Say Thanks

Nichole Nordeman · Wide Eyed [1998]

Hello, Mr. Darkcloud

Never thought that we would meet so soon

Never thought I'd bundle up in June

Funny how the fog rolls

Funnier that I'd know who to blame

Never thought I'd have to own this pain

If all that's good and true

comes from heaven

Then what's a girl to do

when it rains?



Chorus

And I'm sayin'

Why, why, why, why?

I'm shakin' a fist in the dark,

and I'm askin'

Why, why, why, why?

Why does it keep getting harder

To say thanks?

Tell me what's a girl to do...



Even fields of flowers

Dressing in their best because of You

Knowing they are blessed to be in bloom

But what about November

When the air is cold and wet winds blow

Do they understand why they can't grow?



Chorus



And I could not pretend

to know the difference

Between the storms You send

and those I find



Chorus till end
