Blessing in Disguise - DeVotchKa

Is losing something that you love

a blessing in disguise

who comes and goes into our life

not for us to decide

You can bury them deep inside

but you can never hide

You waited for them long enough

It’s time to say goodbye

O my lordy O my god

I finally see what’s going on I count the fingers that you made me Am I squandering the life you gave me I never seem to find the words

the devil ties my tongue

Then I find the perfect words

the moment you have gone

Are we still lovers we’ll never be friends

Is this all there is?

Is this where it ends?

Was it fate?

Was it games of chance?

Are we victims of the circumstances

O my lordy O my god

I finally see what’s going on I count the fingers that you made me Am I squandering the life you gave me Bend your words into a prayer

send them on a trip some where

Let them ring and resonate

Kiss your lips and seal my fate

maybe losing something

that you love is a blessing in disguise

you’ve been their slave for far too long

It’s time to say goodbye

O my lordy O my god

I finally see what’s going on I count the fingers that you made me Am I squandering the life you gave me
