I Will Be Blessed
Lisa Ekdahl Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Refused to shine
Down on me
'Till the end of time
As long as I have your caress
Your tenderness
I will be blessed
Refused their light
Just for me
They stayed out of sight
If you say you love me best
I won't care less
I will be blessed
If the wind won't blow your name
Until I'm still
I will
If it's whispered from above
The highest hill
I will
If the moon
Up in the sky
Turned its face
From the lonely eye
I could never be distressed
Or love you less
I will be blessed

If the sun
Even if the sun stopped shining.
Refused to shine
And stopped providing light.
Down on me
To brighten my day.
'Till the end of time
Forevermore.
As long as I have your caress
As long as I feel your comforting touch.
Your tenderness
And your affection.
I will be blessed
I will count myself fortunate.
If the stars
Even if the stars disappeared.
Refused their light
And stopped shining at night.
Just for me
Exclusively because of me.
They stayed out of sight
And remained hidden.
If you say you love me best
If you claim to love me above all others.
I won't care less
It won't matter to me.
I will be blessed
I will feel fortunate within.
If the wind won't blow your name
In the absence of wind to carry your name.
Until I'm still
Until there's a moment of calm.
I will
I shall carry on.
If it's whispered from above
Even if I only hear it through the skies.
The highest hill
Echoing from the greatest peaks.
I will
I shall carry on.
If the moon
If the moon up in the sky
Turned its face
Decided to hide its brilliant gaze
From the lonely eye
From my lonesome view
I could never be distressed
I couldn't be bothered, unhappy or upset
Or love you less
And my love for you wouldn't diminish
I will be blessed
I will still feel fortunate.
