bless you child - Bette Midler

Bless you chi-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ild.

You suffer, you're human,
you sin, you fail,
you love, you hate, you ail,
you hunger, you lust, you deceive,
you trust, you disbelieve.

Bless you for your weakness.
Bless you for your strength.
Bless you for that smile
that is so hard to trace.
Ooooh, bless you child, bless you child.

You wander, you come home.
You can't survive this world alone.
You deny, you admit,
you start, you can't quit.

Bless you for your weakness.
Bless you for your strength.
Bless you for that smile
that is so hard to trace.
Ooooh, bless you child, bless you child.

Sometimes an ending is the best place to start.
Bless yourself, bless your heart.
Bless yourself, bless your heart.

Hey hey hey yeah, uh huh.
Hey hey hey yeah, uh huh.
Hey hey hey yeah, uh huh.
Hey hey hey, ohhhhh!

Bless you for your weakness.
Bless you for your strength.
Bless you for that smile
that is so hard to trace.
Ooooh, bless you child, bless you child.

Oh pleeeease, yeah. Bless you child.
I say now. I say now.
I know it's true.

Bless yourself, bless your heart.
Bless yourself, bless your heart.
Bless yourself, bless your heart.
Oh pleeeeeease.

Bless yourself, bless your heart.
Bless you child.
Bless you child.
I know it's true.

Bless you child.
Bless yourself, bless your heart . . .
