From the recording It Takes All
Lyrics
IT TAKES ALL (music and lyrics by Amber Norgaard)
It takes all that we have
On this path of life, path of love
Plant the seeds, watch them grow
Bigger than you, bigger than me
It takes all of us together
All of us to give and receive
CHORUS
I thank you…for a second chance to see
I thank you…for allowing me to breathe
I thank you…for my heart that beats
I thank you…for living on in me
There’s a circle unbroken
When the doors to life stay open
A sacred thread we weave
Greater than you, greater than me
It takes all of us as one family
Honoring the life we receive
CHORUS
I thank you…for a second chance to see
I thank you…for allowing me to breathe
I thank you…for my heart that beats
I thank you…for living on…
BRIDGE
Living on…in me…
As we receive…
The sacred thread that you weave…
It goes on and on and on and on, on and on and on and on,
On and on and on in me…
CHORUS
I thank you…for my second chance to be
I thank you…for my family
I thank you…I thank you…
For living on in me…
