<!-- start of lyrics -->
|
She sits in the dark
|
Quietly cursing him and this love
|
While she's rehearsing every line
|
She's gonna say when she walks away
|
On a wing and a prayer
|
|
Looking back at her in the mirror is a stranger
|
Years that have passed, how they seemed to change her
|
A woman once able to stand on her own
|
Searches for strength to stand on her own
|
On a wing and a prayer
|
|
On a wing and a prayer
|
She's leaving tonight
|
Holding her heart in her hands
|
Somewhere out there she knows that she'll find a love that understands
|
Why she left there on a wing and a prayer
|
|
She held on to maybe as long as she could, knowing he wouldn't
|
Believeing he would, give her a single reason to stay
|
To keep her from breaking away on a wing and a prayer
|
|
On a wing and a prayer
|
She's leaving tonight
|
Holding her heart in her hands
|
Somewhere out there she knows that she'll find a love that understands
|
Why she left there on a wing and a prayer
|
|
Somewhere out there she knows that she'll find a love that understands
|
Why she left there on a wing and a prayer
|
Oh, why she left there on a wing and a prayer
|
