Aaron Neville - Song Of Bernadette lyrics

(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
