Prayin' For Daylight Lyrics
I’ve got the lights turned up
The door is locked, the bedroom TV’s on
Doing the only thing that gets me through the night
Since you’ve been gone
Prayin’ for daylight, waiting for that morning sun
So I can act like my whole life ain’t going wrong
Baby come back to me, I swear I’ll make it right
Don’t make me spend another lonely night
Prayin’ for daylight
(Prayin’ for daylight)
I made a bad miscalculation
Betting you would never leave
‘Cause if you’re getting on with your new life.
Then where does that leave me
Prayin’ for daylight, waiting for that morning sun
So I can act like my whole life ain’t going wrong
Baby come back to me, I swear I’ll make it right
Don’t make me spend another lonely night
Prayin’ for daylight
(Prayin’ for daylight)
Prayin’ for daylight
(Prayin’ for daylight)
Prayin’ for daylight
Hoping that I didn’t wait too long
(I didn’t wait too long)
That this is just the dark before the dawn
Deep in my heart I know
That you love me as much as I love you
And that you must be lying somewhere
Looking up to Heaven too
Prayin’ for daylight, waiting for that morning sun
So I can act like my whole life ain’t going wrong
Baby come back to me, I swear I’ll make it right
Don’t make me spend another lonely night
Prayin’ for daylight
(Prayin’ for daylight)
Prayin’ for daylight, waiting for that morning sun
So I can act like my whole life ain’t going wrong
Baby come back to me, I swear I’ll make it right
Don’t make me spend another lonely night
Prayin’ for daylight
(Prayin’ for daylight)
Prayin’ for daylight
I don’t want to spend another lonely night
I don’t want to spend another lonely night
(Prayin’ for daylight)
Prayin’ for daylight
I don’t want to spend another lonely night
Oooo, Oooo, Oooo, Oooo, Oooo
Prayin’ for daylight
The door is locked, the bedroom TV’s on
Doing the only thing that gets me through the night
Since you’ve been gone
So I can act like my whole life ain’t going wrong
Baby come back to me, I swear I’ll make it right
Don’t make me spend another lonely night
Prayin’ for daylight
(Prayin’ for daylight)
Betting you would never leave
‘Cause if you’re getting on with your new life.
Then where does that leave me
So I can act like my whole life ain’t going wrong
Baby come back to me, I swear I’ll make it right
Don’t make me spend another lonely night
Prayin’ for daylight
(Prayin’ for daylight)
(Prayin’ for daylight)
Hoping that I didn’t wait too long
(I didn’t wait too long)
That this is just the dark before the dawn
That you love me as much as I love you
And that you must be lying somewhere
Looking up to Heaven too
So I can act like my whole life ain’t going wrong
Baby come back to me, I swear I’ll make it right
Don’t make me spend another lonely night
Prayin’ for daylight
(Prayin’ for daylight)
So I can act like my whole life ain’t going wrong
Baby come back to me, I swear I’ll make it right
Don’t make me spend another lonely night
Prayin’ for daylight
(Prayin’ for daylight)
I don’t want to spend another lonely night
I don’t want to spend another lonely night
(Prayin’ for daylight)
Prayin’ for daylight
I don’t want to spend another lonely night
Oooo, Oooo, Oooo, Oooo, Oooo
Prayin’ for daylight

"i made a bad miscalculation betting you would never leave"
i love this song
Yeah that's one line that really hits hard. You think the feeling is mutual but right when you do the other person is out to prove you wrong.

This song is AWESOME!
"I’ve got the lights turned up The door is locked, the bedroom TV’s on Doing the only thing that gets me through the night Since you’ve been gone" Double Entendre, anybody?
"I made a bad miscalculation Betting you would never leave"
I love that line, it says to me that nothing's certain, and that someone who you thought would be with you forever, whatever you did, can still leave you.

is that referring to masterbating?
it made me laugh.
i LOVE this song. one of my all time favorites by the flatts. who are by far the best country band.
but i wanted to comment on tush asking if it was about masterbating. i thought so too. but then it clearly states "praying for daylight" i might be wrong but i dont think its about materbating. anyone else agree?
I KNOW RIGHT??? RASCAL FLATTS ROCKS MY SOCKS! And no, it's not about masturbation... Tush, you're kind of a retard if that's what you think.. no offense. But yeah, I LOVE THIS SONG MORE THAN LIFE ITSELF.
you can't say someone's kind of a retard, but no offense.... and it could DEFINITELY refer to masturbation.

I love this song!! The singer is singing to his lover and telling her that he made a lot of mistakes and wish that they'd come back so he can make things right. Also, he's waiting for daylight because at night, that's when he has plenty of time to think about his mistakes and that doesn't sit well with him.
