Trust the Detour

[Verse 1] I stood alone beside the road, Watching taillights fade away. Thought I'd missed my only chance, Thought I'd lost my better days. But somewhere just beyond my sight, A story changed without a sound. Maybe what I called goodbye Was grace I hadn't found. [Pre-Chorus] Every closed door, Every delayed train, Every unanswered prayer Might be shelter from the rain. [Chorus] Maybe I missed the bus 'Cause I wasn't meant to ride. Maybe the road ahead Held a storm I couldn't survive. Maybe the "no" I heard Was a kinder way of "wait." Maybe every broken plan Was love rewriting fate. When I can't see the reason, I'll choose faith over fear. Every detour has a purpose, Even when it isn't clear. [Verse 2] The hands that let me go Made room for someone new. The dreams that slipped away Made space for something true. What felt like losing everything May simply be the bend, Where endings wear disguises Until they bloom again. [Bridge] The universe whispers... God whispers... Life whispers... "Not yet." Some blessings never look like blessings Until you've lived what's next. [Final Chorus] Maybe I missed the bus To find a better road. Maybe every heavy heart Was lightening my load. Maybe every setback Was mercy dressed as pain. Maybe hope is learning Not every loss is vain. So I'll trust the unseen map, Though I don't understand. The path that's meant to find me Always somehow can. [Outro] What feels like bad luck today May become tomorrow's gratitude. I'll trust the detour... Until I see the view.
