Rick Springfield - Prayer Lyrics
In my perfect worldTheres no need to right the wrongedLaid down my burdenI know I did not carry the weightNot sure to who responsibility belongedI turned a blind eyeWhile waiting for the hand of fate to still the watersHeal all the broken heartsAnd hope it could be done without a sacrificeAnd maybe I just wouldnt pay the priceIve fought this long enoughNow I send the prayer to heaven for the chance to beA better man than the man I seeI send the prayer to heaven, lay your hands on meI aint a saint but to this I swear I send the prayerAnd now I feel all I can do is not enoughMy rome is burning and Im standing at the deep abyssBut every passion started with an act of loveAnd every act of love, started with a single kissFather, father your gift was my world of lightAnd Ive betrayed you with a single judas kissIve been my own executionerBut its not just me anymoreNow I send the prayer to heaven for the chance to beA better man than the man I seeI send the prayer to heaven, lay your hands on meI aint a saint but to this I swearBurn my wasted prideOpen your heart to thisTheres a voice thats crying somewhereDeep inside my soul for shelterNow I send the prayer to heaven for the chance to beA better man than the man I seeI send the prayer to heaven, lay your hands on meI aint a saint but to this I swearNow I send the prayer to heaven for the chance to beA better man than the man I seeI send the prayer to heaven, lay your hands on meI aint a saint but to this I swear I send the prayer...Now I send a prayer to heaven...
