Billy Gilman Elizabeth Lyrics

Elizabeth lyrics

Namesake to Elizabeth
Her Daddy's pride and joy
Baptized in her Momma's tears soon after she was born
Cause the doctor said she'd never live to see her sweet sixteen
It's a miracle she beat those odds and there's still no promise she will see tomorrow
it makes me wonder
How life can give someone so much and take so much away
Oh Elizabeth
you're a teacher you're a saint
And I'm so glad you came to us
Elizabeth you make the world a better place
With the kindness of your smile and your love
And your beauty will live on
And on Elizabeth
Elizabeth

[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/b/billy-gilman-lyrics/elizabeth-lyrics.html ]
She might not ever marry or hold a baby of her own
Things we all take for granted are the things she may never know
But she believes there's always hope
And that's all she really has
so she walks through life with passion and with dignity and class
And when she cries she cries in silence but never for herself she cries for everybody else
Everybody else
Elizabeth you're a teacher you're a saint
And I'm so glad you came to us
Elizabeth you make the world a better place with the kindness of your smile and your love
And your beauty will live on
And on
