Bless Me Father - The Saw Doctors

Bless me father for I have sinned

She had big brown eyes and silky skin

Bless me father I couldn’t resist

Oh Father you just have no idea what you’ve missed

Where it’s Wednesday every second week

From September until May

She gets the bus to go to work

Before the dawning of the day

She took my hand and led me Up the stairs into temptation

In the room the candle flickers

And your feet are swept away

Oh Bless me father for I have sinned

She had big brown eyes silky skin

Bless me Father I couldn’t resist

Oh Father, you have no idea what you’ve missed

All the daydreams in my gallery

Are portraits of her prettiness

All the secret silent moments

Call her features into view

Every other woman

Draws contrasts and comparisons

With the stars and heavenly bodies

She sits perfectly in tune

Oh Bless me father for I have sinned

She had big brown eyes, silky skin

Bless me Father I couldn’t resist

Oh Father, you have no idea what you’ve missed

I’ll say three hail Mary’s and a glory be If prayers would bring her here to me

I clenched her shoulders in ecstasy

She’s got a heart of steel

(Delightful kindness)

She looks great in jeans

(Dunnes stores finest)

In the crucibles flames

(Her heart was forged)

In tongues of fire

Now I long for more

Bless me father for I have sinned

She had big brown eyes, silky skin

She’s the greatest kisser I ever kissed

Oh Father you have no idea what you’ve missed
