Everything's a Blessing Songtext
von Lily Talmers

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
