Bless You
Lee Towers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I just had to cry
I stood alone with no love of my own
But then you happened by
'Till you smiled and took my hand
I felt kind of small
But you stood by me for the whole world to see
Bless you, bless every breath that you take
Bless every move that you make
So perfectly
And bless your little heart for loving me
Ohoho, bless you
Bless you, girl
Now you're mine for ever more
And you know how I feel
Oh, I get saints that I hope and I pray
That it, it will always be, oh, darling
Bless you, bless every breath that you take
Bless every move that you make
So perfectly
And bless your little heart for loving me
Oh, darling
Bless you, bless every breath that you take
Bless every move that you make
So perfectly
And bless your little heart for loving me
Bless you, bless every breath that you take
Bless every move that you make
So perfectly
And bless your little heart for loving me
Bless you, bless every breath that you take
Bless every move that you make
