Bless My Soul Lyrics

Jeff Black Bless My Soul

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
