The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little prayer for you
While combing my hair, now,
And wondering what dress to wear, now,
I say a little prayer for you
Forever, forever, 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, together, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would only be heartbreak for me.
(single notes going down - )
I run for the bus, dear,
While riding I think of us, dear,
I say a little prayer for you.
At work I just take time
And all through my coffee break-time,
I say a little prayer for you.
repeat CHORUS X 2
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
baby, say you love me
too, answer my prayer
baby, yeah
repeat CHORUS
repeat BRIDGE to FADE
