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 soulNo one believed what she had seen
No one believed what she heard
But there were sorrows to be healed
And mercy, mercy in this worldSo many hearts I find broken 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 doWe'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 doneTonight, tonight I cannot rest
I've got this joy inside my breast
To think that I did not forget
That child, that song of BernadetteSo many hearts I find broken like yours and mine
Torn by what we've done and can't undo
I just wanna hold you, come on let me hold you?
Like Bernadette would doI just wanna hold you, won't you let me hold you?
Like Bernadette would do
