Blessed
Tom Hangs/Shermanology Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

First sight of rays of light I hear the birds sing
It's a sign he's given me every thing will be ok
Sometimes when I wake up
And I'm wondering how my life would have been if I didn't sing
I get a little stressed out every now and then
But problems come and problems go when I'm around him
Blessed in the morning
Blessed in the evening
And again I realize the reason why I sing

First sight of rays of light I hear the birds sing
It's a sign he's given me every thing will be ok
Sometimes when I wake up
And I'm wondering how my life would have been if I didn't sing
I get a little stressed out every now and then
But problems come and problems go when I'm around him
Blessed in the morning




Blessed in the evening
And again I realize the reason why I sing
