The Devil Dogs 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,
Oh darlin', Bless You,
Bless ev'ry breath that you take,
Bless ev'ry move that you make so perfectly,
And bless your little heart for lovin' me,
Till you smiled and took my hand,
I felt kinda small,
But you stood by me for the whole world to see,
And then I was ten feet tall,
Oh darlin', Bless You, Bless ev'ry breath that you take,
Bless ev'ry move that you make so perfectly,
And bless your little heart for lovin' me.
Ev'ry time I faced the world,
I just had to cry.
I stood alone with no love of my own,
But then you happened by,
Oh darlin', Bless You,
Bless ev'ry breath that you take,
Bless ev'ry move that you make so perfectly,
And bless your little heart for lovin' me,
Uuh, Bless You, Bless you, child!
Till you smiled and took my hand,
I felt kinda small,
But you stood by me for the whole world to see,
And then I was ten feet tall,
Oh darlin', Bless You, Bless ev'ry breath that you take,
Bless ev'ry move that you make so perfectly,

Ev'ry time I faced the world,
Whenever I had to confront the challenges of life
I just had to cry.
It always made me feel vulnerable and emotional
I stood alone with no love of my own,
I was lonely and had no one to share my life with
But then you happened by,
But then you entered my life unexpectedly
Oh darlin', Bless You,
Oh my beloved, thank you from the bottom of my heart
Bless ev'ry breath that you take,
May every breath you take be blessed with happiness and love
Bless ev'ry move that you make so perfectly,
May every action you take be blessed with success and perfection
And bless your little heart for lovin' me,
And thank you for loving me with your kind heart
Uuh, Bless You, Bless you, child!
Thank you, thank you so much, my dear!
Till you smiled and took my hand,
Until you smiled at me and held my hand
I felt kinda small,
I felt inadequate and low in confidence
But you stood by me for the whole world to see,
But you supported me and stood by my side even in front of the world
And then I was ten feet tall,
And then I felt powerful and confident
Oh darlin', Bless You, Bless ev'ry breath that you take,
Oh my beloved, thank you from the bottom of my heart, may every breath you take be blessed
Bless ev'ry move that you make so perfectly,
May every action you take be blessed with success and perfection
And bless your little heart for lovin' me.
And thank you for loving me with your kind heart
