THANK THE DAY

(DAVE TORBERT)

SAILING ON THE OCEAN LEAVING ALL CONFUSION
OF WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU WANT TO BE
SAILING UP THE GREEN WALL LAUGHING AS THE WIND BLOWS
SINGING, SLIDING DOWN THE OTHER SIDE
WORKING IN THE SUN HAVING GOOD HARD FUN
WHEN NIGHTTIME COMES WE'LL REST AND THANK THE DAY
WE THANK THE DAY

LANDING ON AN ISLAND I COULDN'T KEEP FROM SMILING
THE PEOPLE THERE WERE FRIENDLY AS CAN BE
LIVIN' IN AN OCEAN OF SYNCOPATED MOTION
LAUGHING, SINGING ALL OUR CARES AWAY
WORKING IN THE SUN OUR DAYS BE SPENT IN FUN
WHEN NIGHTTIME COMES WE'LL REST AND THANK THE DAY
WE THANK THE DAY

WHEN NIGHTTIME COMES WE'LL REST AND THANK THE DAY
WE THANK THE DAY

SAILING ON THE OCEAN LEAVING ALL CONFUSION
OF WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU WANT TO BE
SAILING UP THE GREEN WALL LAUGHING AS THE WIND BLOWS
SINGING, SLIDING DOWN THE OTHER SIDE
WORKING IN THE SUN OUR DAYS BE SPENT IN FUN
WHEN NIGHTTIME COMES WE'LL REST AND THANK THE DAY
THANK THE DAY
