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
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 every now and then we try to mend the damage that we've done
Tonight, tonight I just can't rest
I've got this joy here inside my breast
To think that I did not forget
That child, that song of Bernadette
So many hearts I find
Hearts 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
I just want to hold you
Come on let me hold you like Bernadette would do
this is my name Bernadette omg a song after my name ;0
