Michael Martin Murphey — Blessings In Disguise

It was a Blessing in Disguise The truth is always a surprise It's good to lose the things you love Just to see what it's like It only serves to reconfirm -- You can't have love on your own terms Thank you for opening my eyes It was a Blessing in Disguise It was a Blessing in Disguise A foolish move can make you wise A quick thief in the night Will teach you not to moralize Tornadoes, ghosts and the Lord of Dreams -- Ah, they're never what they seem Don't try to compromise With your Blessing in Disguise Thank you sweet Blessing in Disguise Brother eclipse, and sister night A quick change brings back 'round the sun So I can swim into the sky Sweet Jesus, thank you for bright days Now that the shadow's gone away I can feel that warm sunrise Goodbye, sweet Blessing in Disguise
