I Only Pray At Night

I only pray at night when the world disappears

Put away and out of sight, I confront my fears

I am proud, I am strong, I’m endowed just as long

As it’s light, I only pray

At night

I only try so hard to make you understand

I’ve got an unmarked card, you’ve got the upper hand

I’m afraid to behave in a way that would leave me scarred

I only try

So hard

And it’s funny, ain’t it funny, what ain’t funny in the dark

Its a mystery to me what my mind will see

And it’s something, ain’t it something, when you miss that mark

And you get down on your knees to pray

I only fly so high until I come back down

Only travel so far until I turn around

If you can’t wait for me to land go on ahead I understand

If you can’t try, I only fly

So high

Make me cry, cry, cry

I don’t know where to go when it don’t seem right

I only fly so high

I only try so hard

I only pray at night
