The Star of Bethnal Green

When I heard you sing
 It felt like a christening
 A baptism at the back of the bar
 I fell under your spell
 You sang my life so well
 As your voice quivers with each line you deliver
 I hear the orchestra as I stand in awe
 I felt so close to the Lord
 I've tried my whole life to ignore
 But love, I'm alive
 And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green
 Could lead us back to Bethlehem
 Lord, I have tried
 And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green
 Could lead us back to Bethlehem
 When I heard you sing
 It was a balm for the blistering
 My eyes, all swollen and scarred
 Your hands guide mine over the braille
 I felt each word without fail
 But love, I'm alive
 And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green
 Could lead us back to Bethlehem
 Lord, I have tried
 And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green
 Could lead us back to Bethlehem
 Love, I'm alive
 And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green
 Could lead us back to Bethlehem
 And Lord, I have tried
 And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green
 Could lead us back to Bethlehe
