I’VE BEEN BLESSED David Potts-Dupre 5/18/07

When the sun it warms my skin – I’ve been blessed
When I see a child grin – I’ve been blessed
When the night it turns to day
And when I get to hear you say
That you want to stay beside me – I’ve been blessed

As the flower loves the soil – I’ve been blessed
As my hands they seek to toil – I’ve been blessed
As I breathe the evening air
And as at you I can only stare
There is nothing more that I need – I’ve been blessed

Bridge
With you by my side, all my fears subside
Our love will abide – yes I’ve been blessed

While a bird is on the wing – I’ve been blessed
While at night I get to sing – I’ve been blessed
While I see you in the crowd
And while I call your name outloud
Yes, while I lay down next to you – I’ve been blessed

Bridge

It’s the time I’ve spent with you – I’ve been blessed
It’s the stars and the morning dew – I’ve been blessed
It’s the small things that mean the most
It’s the way that you hold me close
It’s the love we’ve shared together – I’ve (we’ve) been blessed


Song Notes
I’ve Been Blessed

A simple song in chord progression, melody and lyrics, but a song that’s taken me thirty seven years to write. I’m fifty-three now and that’s how long Lori and I have been together.
