Thanks For The Journey

Lyrics and Music by Fong Xiong Ai Voice was used Album 5(Just Me) Special Addition 29. Thanks For The Journey Verse 1 It's not about the ending It was never about the end It's every road I wandered down And every corner I had to bend Every heartbreak that found me Every promise left undone Every time I thought I'd lost myself Was another lesson won Pre-Chorus I spent so long asking questions Wondering who I need to be But the answer was waiting quietly Right here inside of me Chorus 'Cause every scar became a story Every tear became a page Every wrong turn led me somewhere Even through the hardest days I talked so much about tomorrow About the man I hoped I'd be But I can't change what I am If I won't change what's inside of me So before I take another step There's something I should say Thank you for walking beside me And thanks for the journey Verse 2 I carried all the letdowns Like stones inside my chest Thought if I could outrun yesterday Maybe I'd finally find my rest But looking through the rearview At the miles I've traveled through I wouldn't be the person standing here Without every piece of you Pre-Chorus The mountains and the valleys The sunshine and the rain The things I thought would break me Helped me find my strength again Chorus 'Cause every scar became a story Every tear became a page Every wrong turn led me somewhere Even through the hardest days I talked so much about tomorrow About the man I hoped I'd be But I can't change what I am If I won't change what's inside of me So before I take another step There's something I should say Thank you for walking beside me And thanks for the journey Bridge Maybe nothing lasts forever Maybe that's the way it goes People leave, seasons change And every flower someday folds But the footprints that we leave behind Remain along the way And every mile we shared together Still lives with me today Final Chorus No, it's not about the ending It's never been that way It's every laugh and every heartbreak That helped me find my place To everyone who walked beside me Whether for a year or day Thank you for the memories Thank you for the pain Thank you for the lessons Thank you for the growth Thank you for the journey That brought me home Outro What I need to be Started with who I am And who I am today Was built by the journey
