Ricki-lee I Appreciate You Lyrics

VERSE 1
I remember drawing circles on the sand down by the water
Young and amazing by the crashing waves
I used to sit alone and wonder, why i wasn't like the others
laughing and playing with thier mothers

PRE
But now i know she made a sacrifice
So i could have the finest things in life

CHORUS
I'll spend a lifetime just to show you
How i appreciate you, you taught me how to be myself
I'll walk a million miles, and i'll fall a thousand times
But you taught me how to be myself

VERSE 2
I remember lying in the dark and feeling sad coz it was so hard
Tears running down my face
And everytime i heard a car go past I would run up and look through the glass
hoping i'd see your face

PRE
But now i know she made a sacrifice
So i could have the finest things in life

CHORUS
I'll spend a lifetime just to show you
How i appreciate you, you taught me how to be myself
I'll walk a million miles, and i'll fall a thousand times
But you taught me how to be myself

BRIDGE
You taught me how to be indepentent
And you taught me how to stand strong
And i'm the person that i am today
Coz what i went through in those days
She made a sacrifice, to give me the finest things in life
