Every time I faced the world I just had to cry-y-y
I stood alone with no love of my own
But then you happened by

Oh, darlin', bless you
Bless every breath that you take (bless you)
Yeah-ah-ah, bless ev'ry move that you make so perfectly (ooh-ooh)
And bless your little heart for lovin' me (bless you)
Ooh (bless you), bless you (bless you), 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 every breath that you take (bless you)
Mm-mm-mm, bless ev'ry move that you make so perfectly (ooh-ooh)
And bless your little heart for lovin' me (bless you, bless you)

Oh, darlin', bless you
Bless every breath that you take (bless you)
Baby, bless ev'ry move that you make so perfectly (ooh-ooh)
And bless your little heart for lovin' me

Baby, bless you
Bless every breath that you take (bless you)
Yeah-ah-ah, bless ev'ry move that you make so perfectly
FADE
And bless your little heart for lovin' me
