Everything's a Blessing Lyrics

Tell me about what love should do, these days i don't have much to say

When you've got a lot of things caving in on you, you lose sight of what's at stake

You think maybe that you're gonna surface somewhere later

Finally taste the oxygen

And finally taste the smoke of the book you wrote

And then burned into the crystal air

Dear, something's gotta give if I'm gonna keep living

Something's gotta make sense, keep on moving

Standing at my doorstep smiling bright

Everything's a blessing, I'm alright

Everything's a blessing, I'm alright

Mama told me that I'm a lousy liar, I'll admit it that she is correct

One can see it in my face when I've got a case

Of a blues that can't be resurrected

'Less I'm cradling the cheek of a meek old soul, I'm trying just to play it cool

Unaffected just elected to be president, the suffragette version of the king of fools

Something's gotta give if I'm gonna keep living

When you finally leave me, please come visit

Standing at my doorstep smiling bright

Everything's a blessing, I'm alright

Everything's a blessing, I'm alright

So tell me about what love should do, I'd like it to be crystal clear

And constant as a voice coming nearer still; triumphant as a trumpet blaring

Maybe I'm afraid of knowing what I've got to lose

Maybe I'm afraid of wanting more

And maybe I'm afraid of getting used to certain faces

Greeting me at breakfast in the early morning

Something's gotta give if I'm gonna keep living

When you finally leave me, please come visit

Standing at my doorstep smiling bright

Everything's a blessing, I'm alright

Everything's a blessing, I'm alright
