Bernadette (New Stereo Version)

Bernadette people are searching
For the kind of love that we possess
Some go on searching their whole life through
And never find the love I've found in you

And when I speak of you, I see envy in other men's eyes
And I'm well aware of what's on their minds
They pretend to be my friend when all the time
They long to persuade you from my side
They'd give the world and all they own for
Just one moment we have known

Bernadette they want you
Because of the pride that it gives
But Bernadette I want you because
I need you to live

But while I live only to hold you
Some other men, they long to control you
But how can they control you Bernadette
When they can not control themselves Bernadette
From wanting you, needing you

But darling you belong to me, I'll tell the world
You belong to me, I'll tell the world
You're the soul of me, I'll tell the world
You're a part of me Bernadette

In your arms I find the kind of peace of mind the world is searching for
But you, you give me the joy this heart of
Mine has always been longing for
In you I have what other men long for
All men need someone to worship and adore
That's why I treasure you and place you high above
For the only joy in life is to be loved

So whatever you do, Bernadette
Keep on loving me, Bernadette
Keep on needing me, Bernadette

Bernadette you're the soul of me, more than a dream
You are planned to me
And Bernadette you mean more to me
Than a woman was ever meant to be
Bernadette
