The Greatest Wonder - Gratitude

I’ve got some oil and some matches

You know I would do anything for you

Whether for light or for ashes

All of us burn for something

The greatest risk, the greatest wonder

Some of the time we are stolen

Most of us live our lives as thieves

So how could you know that I could be trusted?

How could you know that I just know that I won’t leave?

Always waiting for someone to be sure

Always praying that we’ll be ready for

The bravest wish, the going under

The greatest risk, the greatest wonder

You cannot give somebody joy

But you can find it by trying

You can’t save someone from death

But you can love them while they’re dying

Always waiting for someone to be sure

Always praying that we’ll be ready for

I’m ready, I’m ready, so give me something pure

The bravest wish, the going under

The greatest risk, the greatest wonder
