Mother says I was a dancer

before I could walk

She says I began to sing long

before I could talk

And I've often wondered,

how did it all start?

Who found out that nothing

can capture a heart

Like a melody can?

Well, whoever it was, I'm a fan

So I say

Thank you for the music,

the songs I'm singing

Thanks for all the joy

they're bringing

Who can live without it,

I ask in all honesty

What would life be?

Without a song or a dance what are we?

So I say thank you for the music

For giving it to me

I've been so lucky,

I am the girl with golden hair

I wanna sing it out to everybody

What a joy, what a life, what a chance!

Thank you for the music,

the songs I'm singing

Thanks for all the joy

they're bringing

Who can live without it,

I ask in all honesty

What would life be?

Without a song or

a dance what are we?

So I say thank you for the music

For giving it to me

So I say

Thank you for the music,

For giving it to me
