Billy Gilman - Elisabeth lyrics

rate me

Namesake to Elisabeth

Her daddy's pride and joy

Baptized in her mama's tears soon after she was born

'Cause the doctor said she'd never live

To see her sweet sixteen

It's a miracle she beat those odds

And there's still no promise

She will see tomorrow

It makes me wonder

How life can give someone so much and take so much away

Oh, Elisabeth

You're a teacher you're a saint

And I'm so glad you came to us

Elisabeth, you make the world a better place

With the kindness of your smile and your love

And your beauty will live on and on

Elisabeth

She might not ever marry

Or hold a baby of her own

TYhings we all take for granted

Are the things she may never know

But she believes there's always hope

And that's all she really has

So she walks through life with passion and

With dignity and class

And when she cries, she cries in silence

But never for herself

She cries for everybody else, for everybody else

Oh, Elisabeth

You're a teacher you're a saint

And I'm so glad you came to us

Elisabeth, you make the world a better place

With the kindness of your smile and your love

And your beauty will live on and on

Elisabeth

And I'm so glad you came to us

Elisabeth, you make the world a better place

With the kindness of your smile and your love

And your beauty will live on and on
