Here's to the people who gave me lifeAnd then showed me how to live itAnd taught me that you measure loveBy how freely you can give itAnd the gift I give to youIs the lesson that I learnedThat when a love is trueIt has nothing in returnUnconditional loveThat they gave to meIt wasn't mine to keepAnd I knew somedayI'd hand it down to youIn hopes that I can beThe one who makes you seeThe importance ofUnconditional loveUnconditional loveNow there were times I know I let them downBut never once was I rejectedAnd when I stood alone to face this worldSomehow I still felt protectedThat's the common bond we shareAnd it will last through the yearsAnd you can trust that I'll be thereThrough the good times and the tearsAnd I'll be thereSo then I'll just sayUnconditional loveUnconditional loveI just can't seeNothing in returnAnd the little I've leftAll of me gave to meUnconditional loveNo, no
