Bless Me

It's so predictable To farm the parable From every tête-à-tête But when you see the end In every beginning Lessons are all you get Bless me Before you go You're goin' nowhere with me Met you in the wrestling pit You came when I needed it, ah A body on top of me to teach me Stayed up past the witching hour You showed me your secret powers I wish that mine could freeze time Bless me Before you go You're goin' nowhere with me Bless me Before you go You're goin' nowhere with me Cupid has it out for me Gave me crooked alchemy, Eros Oh, God of flings Sees the beauty in all things As stupid's as stupid does I grasp your cloak because Maybe you'll grant me wings If I cling Bless me Before you go You're goin' nowhere with me Bless me Before you go You're goin' nowhere with me You must be an angel Your conscience is clean Why would you soil yourself With a monster like me? If the good Lord sent ya The good Lord can take ya back I hope when he comes for you You illuminate the path (Bless me before you go) (Bless me before you go) Oh, ooh, ooh You're goin' nowhere with me, me You're goin' nowhere with me, me You're goin' nowhere with me You're goin' nowhere with me Bless me Before you go You're goin' nowhere with me Bless me Before you go --- Bless Me - Moses Sumney
