Song Of Bernadette |
|
(Leonard Cohen, Jennifer Warnes, Bill Elliott) |
|
duet with Linda Ronstadt |
|
There was a child named Bernadette |
|
I heard the story long ago |
|
She saw the Queen of Heaven once |
|
And kept the vision in her soul |
|
No one believed what she had seen |
|
No one believed what she heard |
|
But there was sorrows to be |
|
And mercy, mercy in this world |
|
So many hearts I find, broke like yours and mine |
|
Torn by what we've done and can't undo |
|
I just want to hold you, won't you let me hold you |
|
Like Bernadette would do |
|
We've been around, we fall, we fly |
|
We mostly fall, we mostly run |
|
And every night, and then we try |
|
To mend the damage that we've done |
|
Tonight, tonight I can not rest |
|
I've got this joy inside my breast |
|
To think that I did not forget that child |
|
That song of Bernadette |
|
So many hearts I find, broke like yours and mine |
|
Torn by what we've done and can't undo |
|
I just want to hold, come on let me hold you |
|
Like Bernadette would do |
|
I just want to hold you, won't you let me hold you |
|
Like Bernadette would do |
