Friends and Family - Andy Grammer

I've been given more than any man

Can reasonably expect

Tasted fame, I've tasted fortune

Undeniably, I'm blessed

When you're young, you hear 'em say it

But you don't fully believe

It all means nothing without friends and family

Oh, God, thank You for my friends and family

I've won awards for playing chords

I been the talk of the town

I've seen my name in lights

I've heard the roaring of a crowd

When I was young, I thought that love would come

From things that I achieve

The kind of love I crave and really need

Oh, that only comes from friends and family

La-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da

La-da-da-da, dee-dee-dee

La-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da

Oh, God, thank You for my friends and family

Oh, God, thank You for my friends and family

Now it's good to have self-worth

And I'd say I have self-esteem

But I'm only just one person

In this human symphony

And everybody knows just one note

Don't make a masterpiece

There's no beauty, there's no tension, no release

Oh, God, thank You for my friends and family

La-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da

La-da-da-da, dee-dee-dee

La-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da

Oh, God, thank You for my friends and family

Oh, God, thank You for my friends and family

Now when it all is said and done

And my lungs no longer breathe

And I'm walking through the gates

My maker stands in front of me

And asks me, "What'd you do down there?

What's the legacy you leave?"

Hope I can respond confidently

That I spent my days, my time, my energy

Giving all I had to friends and family

La-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da

La-da-da-da, dee-dee-dee

La-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da

Oh, God, thank You for my friends and family

Oh, God, thank You for my friends and family
