This is my lover's prayer
|
I hope it'll reach out to you, my love
|
This is my lover's prayer
|
And I hope you can understand it, my love
|
|
My life is such a weary thing
|
But it might be old pressure bringing rain (?)
|
You keep wanting, waiting and wishing
|
When I know deep down that I'm not to blame
|
|
What you gonna do tonight
|
When you need some loving arms to hold you tight
|
What you gonna do tonight
|
When you need my heavy voice to tell you good night
|
|
Honey but you can't let that be no problem
|
You ve got to come home and help me solve it
|
[Yeah] I won't be missing you
|
And honey, my lover's prayer would be all over
|
|
What can the matter be [now]?
|
It can't be to serious we can't talk it over
|
Living in this misery, darling
|
You can't make my life all over
|
|
Honey but don't you let that be no problem
|
Just come on home and help me solve it
|
[Dear] I won't be missing you
|
And my lover's prayer would be all over
|
It got to be all over
|
Honey all over
|
Don't keep my life going round so many circles
|
|
I won't be missing you
|
I won't be missing you
|
And my lover's prayer won't be all over
|
|
This is my lover's prayer
|
Come on y'all
|
This is my lover's prayer
|
And I hope it reaches out to you
|
This is my lover's prayer
|
I hope it gets to you
|
