performed for "music of the millennium" (1999)
originally performed by madonna.
Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home
When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
I hear your voice, it's like an angel sighing
I have no choice, I hear your voice
Feels like flying
I close my eyes, oh God I think I'm falling
Out of the sky, I close my eyes
Heaven help me
When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
Like a child, you whisper softly to me
You're in control, just like a child
Now I'm dancing
It's like a dream, no end and no beginning
You're here with me, it's like a dream
Let the choir sing
When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me (ooooh, hey)
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
(I'll take you there)
It's like a dream to me
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
(ooooh, I'll take you there)
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
(I'll take you there)
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
(I'll take you there)
It's like a dream to me (ooooh, hey)
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
(I'll take you there)
It's like a dream to me
