Testo Elizabeth

Namesake to Elisabeth Her daddy's pride and joy Baptized in her mama'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, Elisabeth You're a teacher you're a saint And I'm so glad you came to us Elisabeth, you make the world a better place With the kindness of your smile and your love And your beauty will live on and on Elisabeth 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, for everybody else Oh, Elisabeth You're a teacher you're a saint And I'm so glad you came to us Elisabeth, you make the world a better place With the kindness of your smile and your love And your beauty will live on and on Elisabeth And I'm so glad you came to us Elisabeth, you make the world a better place With the kindness of your smile and your love And your beauty will live on and on
