[Chorus]
  Thank you
  For all the tears
  All the tears all the stress
  Your the best
  I feel blessed
  Im a better woman now
  Look how I sdmile
  All you did was help the next man
  This experience made
  Me who I am
  
  [Verse 1]
  I tried to make me love ya
  i tried to make me stay
  But every time i tried
  Myself and i got in the way
  Just for the sake of my daughter
  I tried to stick to the plan
  But i had to get rid of the weight
  On my fourth finger, left hand
  To every body listening
  Sorry if your disappointed
  See the life i chose was only what
  I thought i wanted
  Nothings picture perfect
  Looks can be deceiving
  What i thought was love
  Was something that i did not believe in
  
  [Chorus]
  Thank you
  For all the tears
  All the tears all the stress
  Your the best
  I feel blessed
  Im a better woman now
  Look how I smile
  All you did was help the next man
  This experience made
  Me who I am
  
  [Verse 2]
  I always had the feelin'
  That baby boy was cheatin'
  I kept tellin' myself
  If you aint happy Bran just leave him
  I wasn't raised to quit
  Cause quiters never win
  But what do you gain
  If you feel incomplete within?
  Sick of all the questions
  All the whats and whys
  "What happened?"
  "Why'd ya'll break up?"
  "Why we never see you cry?"
  But do you know how it feels
  To hurt behind closed doors
  When you go outisde
  You wonder why your smiling for
  
  [chorus]
  Thank you
  For all the tears
  All the tears all the stress
  Your the best
  I feel blessed
  Im a better woman now
  Look how I smile
  All you did was help the next man
  This experience made
  Me who I am
  
  [Bridge]
  Now that its over i can live
  Now all you had belongs to him
  My heart is open like a book
  And everything he eats, i cook
  What i am to him, he is to me
  We are eachothers everything
  But if i would have stayed with you
  I wouldnt have it like i do
  
  [chorus 2X]
  Thank you
  For all the tears
  All the tears all the stress
  Your the best
  I feel blessed
  Im a better woman now
  Look how I smile
  All you did was help the next man
  This experience made
  Me who I am
