The moment i wake up
Before you put on your makeup
I say a little prayer for you
While combing my hair, now
Your wondering what dress to wear, now
I say a little prayer for you
I say a little prayer for you
The moment i wake up
Before you put on your makeup
I say a little prayer for you
While combing my hair, now
Your wondering what dress to wear, now
I say a little prayer for you
Forever and ever, you'll stay in my heart
And i will love you
Forever, and ever, we never will part
Oh, how i'll love you
Together, forever, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me
I run for the bus, dear
While riding i think of us, dear
I say a little prayer for you (yes i will)
At work, i just take my time
And all through my coffee break-time
I say a little prayer for you
Forever and ever, you'll stay in my heart
And i will love you
Forever, and ever, we never will part
Oh, how i'll love you
Together, forever, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me
My darling, believe me
For me there is no one, but you
Please love me, too
I'm in love with you (answer my prayer)
Answer my prayers now babe (answer my prayer)
Say you love me, true (answer my prayer)
Answer my prayers babe (answer my prayer)
Forever and ever, you'll stay in my heart
And i will love you
Forever, and ever, we never will part
Oh, how i'll love you
Together, forever, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me
Forever and ever, you'll stay in my heart
And i will love you
Forever, and ever, we never will part
Oh, how i'll love you
Together, forever, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me
(Nobody but me)
Now darling believe me (believe me)
For me there is no one for you
Please love me true
I'm in love with you
Answer my prayers now babe
Say you love me true (answer my prayer)
This is my prayer babe (answer my prayer)
Say you love me true (answer my prayer)
This is my prayer (answer my prayer)
Say you love me too
