You're Blessed


Keep on looking for the place you left
You'll find it when you're laid to rest
Problem is you'd like to taste it
Every chance you get
Some drink it till the need subsides
Some see it in prescription dose
These people get to meet their maker
By trying to get too close

And when the hurt you brave
Brings you less than what you plan
You find the closest thing to reason
That you can

And when she takes you in her arms
Love feels like the wrath of God
When she takes you in her arms
Remember, remember how you're blessed

I've seen the sort of thing
For which the seekers search
Looked a little like a visitation
Felt so good it hurt
This mortal curtain
Hides a big secret till you die
While I'm between certificates
I would like to see what's behind

And when she takes you in her arms
Love feels like the wrath of God
When she takes you in her arms
Remember, remember how you're blessed

You're blessed
My seventh son, you're saved
Stop your praying man
Conditions have - more than have been met

She brings the pearly gates
Within reach of living man
You'll hold the key, have faith
She'll put it in your hand

When she takes you in her arms
Love feels like the wrath of God
When she takes you in her arms
Remember, remember how you're blessed

You're blessed
My seventh son, you're saved
You're blessed
Conditions have been met
Count your blessings, man
As she's undressing tonight
