Lyrics Lessons - Eric Roberson

God has a funny way of showing you lessons
For years, I would stare up in the sky with so many questions
Like, "Will I find someone for me?"
Or even if I'm standing in the place I need to be
I can't say that every love affair I had was perfect
But every painful day and late night was worth it

Now I realize (-lize)
Everyone that let me down led me to you
Oh, baby
All them sleepless nights (nights)
All the heartbreak I had led me to you
If I never went through it, I'd have never found a love like you

It's not about the past, it's all about the present
I thought love wasn't meant to be until the day I felt it from you
You gave so much to me, can't help but give it back to you
Right now I just wanna breathe it, see it, live it
Oh, come on, babe

Now I realize (-lize)
Everyone that let me down led me to you
Led me to you, oh, baby, babe
All them sleepless nights (nights)
All the heartbreak I had led me to you
If I never went through it, I'd have never found a love like you

The sky was always blue (so blue)
But bluer now with you (oh, yeah)
The sun, it seems to shine brighter now (yeah)
I needed ups and downs (just to)
To realize this now (and now)
And now that you're around
I truly know love
I can't help but thank God for you, baby, yeah

Now I see, now I realize (-lize)
Everyone that let me down led me to you
Led me to you
And I'm thankful, baby, for them sleepless nights (nights)
All the heartbreak I had led me to you
Led me to you, led me to you
Led me, baby
To love you, baby girl, yeah (-lize)
(Everyone that let me down led me to you) can't believe I used to say, "Why me?"
Why me? Why me? Why me? Yeah
But see, God has a funny way of showing you lessons
