Funkadelic - Bernadette lyrics

Bernadette, people are searchin' for The kind of love that we possess Some go on searchin' 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, oh 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 (Sweet Bernadette) (Sweet Bernadette) So whatever you do, Bernadette Keep on loving me, Bernadette Keep on needing me, Bernadette Bernadette Bernadette (Bernadette) You're the soul of me More than a dream, you're a plan to me And Bernadette, you mean more to me Than a woman was ever meant to be Bernadette Bernadette, my darling
