I Say A Little Prayer Lyrics

('Say a little prayer for you)
The moment I wake up
Before I put on my make up (Make up)
I say a little (Prayer for you)
While combing my hair now
And wondering what dress to wear now (Wear now)
I say a little (Prayer for you)

Forever, forever,
You'll stay in my heart and I will love you
Forever, and ever,
We never will part, oh how I'll love you
Together, together,
That's how it must be
To live without you
Would only be heartbreak for me

I run for the bus, dear
While riding I think of us, dear (Us, dear)
I say a little (Prayer for you)
At work I just take time
And all through my cofee-break time (Break time)
i say a little (Prayer for you)

Forever, forever...
Nobody but me

My darlin' believe me (Believe me)
For me there is noone but you
Please love me too
I'm in love with you
Answer my prayers
Say you love me too

Forever, forever...
Nobody but me

My darling, believe me..

i cant believe only one other perosn has commented on this song! it is about longing for someone, and thinking about them, but most of all praying every spare moment for them to want you.

Good Song

i love this song! it has to be one of my all time favourites, but i only got into it after hearing 'gene' do a live cover of it. then of course it was a man singing but he changed the words slightly (like 'dress') so it didnt sound too bizarre. it is very rare for me to like any cover versions which just shows that this is a great song and that gene are a geat band who can do it justice. this is just my round about way of plugging gene. check out their lyrics, theyre great.

Suprised this song has so few comments. One of the classic's from the 60's. Excellent song of love and hope from a time when life was simplier.
