ABBA - Thank You for the Music lyrics

I'm nothing special
In fact I'm a bit of a bore
If I tell a joke
You've probably heard it before
But I have a talent, a wonderful thing
'Cause everyone listens when I start to sing
I'm so grateful and proud
All I want is to sing it out loud

So I say thank you for the music
The songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it? I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance, what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

Mother says I was a dancer
Before I could walk
Mhm, she says I began to sing
Long before I could talk
And I've often wondered
How did it all start?
Who found out that nothing
Can capture a heart like a melody can?
Well, whoever it was, I'm a fan

So I say thank you for the music
The songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it? I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance, what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

I've been so lucky
I am the girl with golden hair
I wanna sing it out to everybody
What a joy, what a life, what a chance

Thank you for the music
The songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy they're bringing
Who can live without it? I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance, what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me
