Album: Peace of Mind
|
Song: Say a Prayer
|
(D. Glasper / M. Lillington)
|
(These lyrics are as they are written on the album sleeve, and may
|
vary slightly from those actually sung by David on the tracks)
|
Verse:
|
Sweet sugar pumping through my veins
|
Everywhere is on a wire
|
Sweet sugar you say it's just a game
|
Soon to be your one desire
|
When the devil holds your hand
|
Then you know he's in command
|
Of temptation
|
Like the beauty of a rose
|
Or a summer that will go
|
Where's salavation
|
Chorus:
|
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
|
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
|
Verse:
|
Sweet sugar your world just tumbles down
|
How you hunger for illusion
|
Sweet sugar will take more than you own
|
All you have is your confusion
|
You'll be standing in the rain
|
You'll be crying out in shame
|
For mercy
|
So you turn to every man
|
Say you need a helping hand
|
Don't desert me
|
Chorus:
|
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
|
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
|
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
|
Bridge:
|
I don't know what I've done with my life
|
I don't know what to think of all this wasted time
|
I was in search of paradise
|
Yet this seems a heavy price to pay
|
Chorus:
|
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
|
Won't you say a prayer
|
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
|
Won't you say a prayer
|
Say a little prayer
|
Say a little prayer
|
|
