If Bernadette Is to Be Trusted
Craig Cardiff Lyrics
If Bernadette is to be trusted
Then all the ghosts we've been are cleared
All debts paid, all accounts settled
Turn the page to jubilee year
In this life she is yours to lose
You for her to find
Bernadette was clear on this
You can pick what to bring
Or leave behind
Tea cup paintings
And waking dreams
Grifters, soldiers
Farmers, showgirls
The captain who gave comfort to his queen
In this life she is yours to lose
You for her to find
Bernadette was clear on this
You can pick what to bring
Or leave behind
Bernadette
Bernadette
Bernadette
Bernadette
If Bernadette is to be trusted
The love that was not
Might work next life
Clear the cobwebs, sweep the chimneys
So the spark might breathe into a fire
In this life he is yours to lose
You for him to find
Bernadette was clear on this
You can pick what to bring
Or leave behind
In her dreams once you were constantine
Once a poet aching for rhyme
A kiss received, gladly repaid
Over one thousand and one nights
A hatter mad, mercury tongued
The barber's son, the bar fly
Bernadette was clear on this
You can pick what to bring and leave behind
Bernadette
Bernadette
Bernadette
Bernadette
