Dear Ella Songtext

von Dee Dee Bridgewater

Dear Ella
Our Special First Lady of Song
You gave your best for so long
This is true
Dear Ella we're all so glad
You answered the call
For it is certain that your music
Will always stand tall
Your blessing to all
Dear Ella
The soul in your songs
And heart we can feel
Such feeling, emotion
Such beauty of phrase
Each time
You brought joy to so many
With sounds of the music sublime

Made it so fun
With hard work and talent
You became number one
With your bearing so regal
Your voice strong and true
You gave us a standard
Met only by a few
Dear Ella
We'll always remember
Your love and good will
We treasure the place
In our hearts that you fill
We love you
We thank you
For all that you are
Ella... in our hearts
You are a true
Shining star...
Dear Ella.
