Son of Bernadette Songtext

von Bette Midler

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,
That there were sorrows to be healed
And mercy,mercy in this world.

Chorus
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,
Come on,let me hold you like Bernadette would do.

We've been around,
We fall,we fly,
We mostly fall,we mostly run.
And ev'ry now and then
We try to mend the damage what we've done.
Tonight,tonight I just can't rest.
I've got this joy here,
Here inside my breast,
To think that I did not forget that child,
That song of Bernadette.

Chorus

I just want to hold you,
Won't you let me hold you
Like Bernadette would do?
