|
All the lovely ladies in their finery tonight |
|
I wish that I could know them one by one |
|
All the handsome gentlemen with loving on their minds |
|
Strolling in to take the ladies home |
|
Bless you all and keep you on the road to tenderness |
|
Heaven can be yours just for now |
|
All the gentle strangers who by nature do not smile |
|
To everyone who cannot hold a pen |
|
To all you heavy rounders with a headache for your pains |
|
Who dread the thought of going 'round the bend |
|
Bless you all and keep you on the road to better things |
|
Heaven can be yours just for now |
|
To all the lovely ladies in their finery tonight |
|
I wish that I could kiss you while you knit |
|
To all the ones who learn to live with being second-guessed |
|
Whose job it is to give more, then to get |
|
Bless you all and keep you with the strength to understand |
|
Heaven can be yours just for now |
|
To all the little dreamers with a dream that cannot last |
|
To all the sleeping giants who must wake |
|
To every man who answers to the letter of the law |
|
And all the rest imprisoned by mistake |
|
Bless you all and keep you with the faith to let it pass |
|
Heaven can be yours just for now |
|
To all the lonely sailors who have trouble being seen |
|
To all of you with heartache that remains |
|
Maybe sometime later you might swim back into shore |
|
If someone could relieve you of your chains |
|
Bless you all and keep you all on the land or on the sea |
|
Heaven can be yours just for now |
