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
