Lyrics for Song: My Prayer
Lyrics for Album: Only You [2004]
My prayer is to linger with you
At the end of the day
In a dream that's divine...
My prayer is a rapture in blue
With the world far away
And your lips close to mine.
Tonight, while our hearts are aglow,
Oh, tell me the words that I'm longing to know...
My prayer and the answer you give,
May they still be the same for as long as we live,
That you'll always be there
At the end of my prayer
When the twilight is gone
And no songbird is singing
When the twilight is gone
You come into my heart
And here in my heart do you stay
While I pray
Tonight, while our hearts are aglow,
Oh, tell me the words that I'm longing to know...
My prayer and the answer you give,
May they still be the same for as long as we live,
That you'll always be there
At the end of my prayer
