There was a child named Bernadette
   I heard the story long ago
   She saw the Queen of Heaven once
   And kept the vision in her soul
   No one believed what she had seen
   No one believed what she heard
   But there was sorrows to be
   And mercy, mercy in this world
  
   So many hearts I find, broke like yours and mine
   Torn by what we've done and can't undo
   I just want to hold you, won't you let me hold you
   Like Bernadette would do
  
   We've been around, we fall, we fly
   We mostly fall, we mostly run
   And every night, and then we try
   To mend the damage that we've done
   Tonight, tonight I can not rest
   I've got this joy inside my breast
   To think that I did not forget that child
   That song of Bernadette
  
   So many hearts I find, broke like yours and mine
   Torn by what we've done and can't undo
   I just want to hold, come on let me hold you
   Like Bernadette would do
   I just want to hold you, won't you let em hold you
   Like Bernadette would do
