Blessed
Brett Dennen and Forro In The Dark Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The clouds and rain
The wind that sweeps the sky clean and lets the sun shine again
This is the most magnificent life has ever been
Here is heaven and earth and the brilliant sky inbetween
Blessed is this life, I'm gonna celebrate being alive
All right, blessed is this life, I'm gonna celebrate being alive
Blessed is this life, I'm gonna celebrate being alive
Blessed is this life, I'm gonna celebrate being alive
That's right
I dwell in the darkness
I let in the light
I sleep in the afternoon and become the noise in the night
I trespass in temptation and I suffered in sacrifice
But I awake each day with the new sunrise
Blessed is this life, I'm gonna celebrate being alive
That's right
Blessed is this life, I'm gonna celebrate being alive
I'm gonna celebrate, I'm gonna celebrate
I'm gonna celebrate, I'm gonna celebrate
Said I'm gonna, I'm gonna cele-brate
I'm gonna celebrate, I'm gonna celebrate
I'm gonna celebrate, I'm gonna celebrate
Blessed is this life, I'm gonna celebrate being alive
Blessed is this life, I'm gonna celebrate being alive
That's right
