Long ago
|
Before the moon was young
|
And before the first love song
|
Had ever been sung
|
We both knew
|
Beyond a shadow of doubt
|
What loving somebody
|
Was really all about
|
|
When the sun goes down
|
And you are not around
|
I'm sailing on a prayer
|
Don't you know
|
I told everyone
|
I even told the rising sun
|
That I really need my friend
|
|
When the sun goes down
|
In this sleepy little town
|
All the world keeps spinning
|
And the planets turn around
|
All alone
|
Lonely as the stars
|
Well I just wanna be
|
Wanna be where you are
|
|
When the sun goes down
|
And you are not around
|
I'm sailing on a prayer
|
Don't you know
|
I told everyone
|
I even told the rising sun
|
That I really need my friend
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
|
When the sun goes down
|
And you're not around
|
I'm sailing on a prayer
|
Don't you know
|
I told everyone
|
I even told the rising sun
|
That I really miss my friend
|
