Amen
Edens Edge Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I heard from a friend of a friend of a friend that
You finally got rid of that girlfriend
You finally came out of that love coma boy
I heard Mary Jane at the powder-puff beauty shop
Sayin' that blond in her tube top
She left our Jimmy for a boy in Illinois
Someone give me an amen,
Someone give me an amen.

Can I get a thank God Hallelujah
You finally saw what she was doing to ya
Your mama called it, she was right
Glad to see you saw the light.
Whole town yeah we hooped and hollered.
She drove away nobody stopped her
Na na na na na, I'll say it again
Someone give me an amen.

Yeah right, like I really coulda said something
You wouldn't heard it if the train was coming
You had your head so high in the clouds
Oh I, I had a really good reason
For hiding my feelings but now I can finally spit it out
Someone give me an amen.
Someone give me an amen.

Can I get a thank God Hallelujah
You finally saw what she was doing to ya
Your mama called it, she was right
Glad to see you saw the light.
Whole town yeah we hooped and hollered.
She drove away nobody stopped her
Na na na na na, I'll say it again
Someone give me an amen.

I'm standing right here in front of you
I think I love you too
Can I get a thank God Hallelujah
Baby do you believe it, do you?
Your mama called it, she was right
Glad to see you saw the light.

Whole town yeah they hooped and hollered.
The preacher's son and the farmer's daughter.
Na na na na na, I'll say it again
Someone give me an amen,
Someone give me an amen





Na na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na na

Yeah, I'm a turner
I turn pages all the time
Don't like where I'm at, 34 was bad
So I just turn to 35
Yeah, I'm a keeper
I keep digging down for the deep
Like the records I'm playing
They might keep you waiting
But you know I'm gonna play 'em for keeps
And if the house just keeps on winning
I got a wildcard up my sleeve
And if love keeps giving me lemons
I'll just mix 'em in my drink
And if the whole wide world stops singing
And all the stars go dark
I'll keep a light on in my soul
Keep a bluebird in my heart
Well, I'm a giver
Yeah, and I'm still giving 'em hell
Forgiving's pretty hard
So I made an art out of forgettin' 'em well
Yeah, I'm a rhymer
I can turn twenty cents into a ten
And if I get confused, and I start to lose
I rhyme a dime 'til it all makes sense
And if the house just keeps on winning
I got a wildcard up my sleeve
And if love keeps giving me lemons
I'll just mix 'em in my drink
And if the whole wide world stops singing
And all the stars go dark
I turn the light on in my soul
And keep a bluebird in my heart
Ooh, ooh
And if the house just keeps on winning
I got a wildcard up my sleeve
And if love starts giving me lemons
Just mix 'em in my drink
And if the whole wide world stops singing
And all the stars go dark
I'll keep the light on in my soul
Keep a bluebird in my heart
I'll keep a light on in my soul
Keep a bluebird in my heart
Keep a bluebird in my heart
Ooh
And the bluebird sings
Ooh

"Bluebird"

Yeah I'm a turner
I turn pages all the time
Don't like where I'm at
34 was bad
So I just turn to 35
Yeah I'm a keeper
I keep digging down for the deep
Like the records I'm playing
They might keep you waiting
But you know I'm only playing for keeps

And if the house just keeps on winning
I got a wild card up my sleeve
And if love keeps giving me lemons
I just mix 'em in my drink
And if the whole wide world stops singing
And all the stars go dark
I'll keep a light on in my soul
Keep a bluebird in my heart

Well I'm a giver
Yeah and I'm still giving 'em hell
Forgiving's pretty hard
So I've made an art
Out of forgetting 'em well
Yeah I'm a rhymer
I can turn 20 cents into a 10
And if I get confused
And I start to lose
I'll rhyme a dime till it all makes sense

And if the house just keeps on winning
I got a wild card up my sleeve
And if love keeps giving me lemons
I just mix 'em in my drink
And if the whole wide world stops singing
And all the stars go dark
I'll turn a light on in my soul
And keep the bluebird in my heart

And if the house just keeps on winning
I got a wild card up my sleeve
And if love starts giving me lemons
I just mix 'em in my drink
And if the whole wide world stops singing
And all the stars go dark
I'll keep a light on in my soul
Keep a bluebird in my heart
I'll keep a light on in my soul
Keep a bluebird in my heart
Keep a bluebird in my heart

And the bluebird sings

I lost my girlfriend a little over a year ago to Cancer, she was just 42, this song really makes me think of her, puts a little smile on my face, I really think she would have loved this song too, thanks so much.

@pamelaaranzazu

If it reminds you of her she’s there with you ❤️ I’ll send a prayer for you tonight my thoughts are with you !

@baileywright3601
