 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
