Janis Ian — Through the Years 2008

[Verse 1] It's a miracle of nature Just to be alive tonight Awake in your arms The world and its charms Lit up by candle light It's a miracle of feeling To love despite the fear So please don't forget I've had no regrets Since you found me here [Chorus] 'Cause through the years we've been happy Through the years we've been sad And sometimes, feeling lucky Was the only luck we had But I would not trade The laughter or the tears Through the yеars [Verse 2] It's a never-ending wondеr That other arms are cold When every night I'm warmed by the light Of your spendthrift soul It's shining like a beacon Lit up against the dark What do people do When they don't have you Alive in their hearts? [Chorus] 'Cause through the years we've been happy Through the years we've been sad And sometimes, feeling lucky Was the only luck we had But we always found Some laughter in the tears Through the years [Outro] What do people do Who haven't got you To lighten their tears? Through the years Through the years Through the years
