Lyrics

Pray

When the time grew near
For me to show my love
The longer I stayed away for
Hiding from a word I need to hear now
Don't think I'll hear it again
(Don't think I'll hear it again)

But the nights were always warm with you
Holding you right by my side (right by my side)
But the morning always comes too soon
Before I even close my eyes (close my eyes)

All I do each night is pray
Hoping that I'll be a part of you again someday (oh yeah)
All I do each night is think
Of all the times I closed the door to keep my love within
Closed the door

If you can't forgive the past
I'll understand that
Can't understand why I did this to you
And all of the days and the nights so I regret it
I never showed you my love
(I never showed you my love)

But the nights were always warm with you (my love)
Holding you right by my side (right by my side)
But the morning always comes too soon
Before I even close my eyes (close my eyes)

All I do each night is pray
Hoping that I'll be a part of you again someday
All I do each night is think
Of all the times I closed the door to keep my love within

Surely we must be in sight
Of the dream we long to live (we long to live)
If you stop and close your eyes
You'll picture me inside
I'm so cold and all alone

Straight on back to me

All I do each night is pray
Hoping that I'll be a part of you again someday
All I do each night is think
Of all the times I closed the door to keep my love within

(All I do each night is pray) come on
(Hoping) time is running out
(Hoping that I'll be a part of you again someday)
You and me
(All I do each night is pray) harmony
You and me
(Of all the times I closed the door to keep my love within)

You and me
Forevermore
That's what I told you
