Jeff Black - Bless My Soul lyrics

Bless My Soul

I know why the blackbird sings

his strange and mournful song on a summer’s night

I know why the spirit brings

us back into this world until we get it right

I’m on a roll

and I begin to see the light

bless my soul

I’ve been around so many times

I know why the baby cries

it’s way into the arms of a mother’s love

I know why true love survives(

and it is more than the red hot fire of another’s touch

I’m on a roll

and I am not afraid to fight

bless my soul

on a long hot summer’s night

I see fair to warn you

that there’s nothing here to stop me

(from drowning in the darkness

of the things I can’t control

the angel near my heaven

who I know will always haunt me

is constant and convincing

I’ve a long long way to go

I know why the day is long

when there is no one to talk to about my dreams

I know when the evening comes

that I will know the song of desire that the blackbird sings

I’m on a roll

and I am not afraid to fight

bless my soul

I’ve been around so many times
