Lyrics
IF TOMORROW COMES WITHOUT ME
(Mark Chadbourne)
If tomorrow comes without me
If I'm not there to see
If the sunlight should hit your eyes filled with tears
for me
I wish you wouldn't cry
I'd hope you wouldn't cry
ecce homo occupare cor carpe cardia
I'm so grateful that you love me
And you know how I love you, too
Like my song said
Love is stronger than death
Love is strong as death is permenant
ecce homo occupare cor carpe cardia
I'll be closer than ever
Never feel alone
Carpe cardia
ecce homo occupare cor carpe cardia
ecce homo occupare cor carpe cardia
If the morning brings the promised broken string...

THANK YOU
(Mark Chadbourne)
Thank you for my life
Thank you for the air and light
Thank you for my heart
Thank you for the dawn after long, lonely nights
Thank you for my Mom
Thank you for the Earth
Thank you for my Dad and the love of my family
Thank you Mom for giving me birth
Thank you for my sight
Thank you for speech and expression
Thank you for my mind
Thank you for my education
Thank you for the dream
Thank you for unimagined possibilities
Thank you for my body
Thank you for my limbs and mobility
How can you possibly account for everything
you feel so blessed and grateful for?
Heart beating everything thank-you
Breathing my prayer of gratitude
Thank you for your love
Thank you all for your love
ecce homo occupare cor carpe cardia
ecce homo occupare cor carpe cardia
Thank you for my friends
Thank you for beginnings and endings
Thank you for the sound
Thank you for my sense of hearing
Thank you for this food and the sacrificed life
Thank you for my dearly beloved
Thank you for the time
Thank you for consideration and kindness
Thank you for emotions, vocations, technology, engineering
The laughter, and children, and music, and writing
and Fine Arts and Agricultural Science
Perspectives and memories and medical miracles
Animal companions
Thank you for oceans and sky and mountains and canyons
and valleys
And thank you for this song
Thank you forgiving me all my wrongs
And thank you for me
Thank you most of all for you
