[Verse 1]
This is my lover's prayer
And I hope it'll reach out to you, my love
This is my lover's prayer
And I hope you can understand it, my love
[Verse 2]
My life is such a weary thing
But it might be it's own presence bringin' rain
You keep me wanting, waiting and wishing
When I know deep down, I'm not to blame
[Verse 3]
What you gonna do tonight
When you need some lovin' arms to hold you tight?
Tell me, what you gonna do tonight
When you need my heavy voice to tell you goodnight?
[Verse 4]
Honey, but you can't let that be no problem
You've got to come on home and help me solve 'em
Yeah, I won't be missin' you
And honey, my lover's prayer would be all over
Oh, man
[Verse 5]
What can the matter be now?
It can't be too serious we can't talk it over
Living in this misery
Darling
You can't make my life all over
[Verse 6]
Honey but you don't let that be no problem
Just come on home and help me solve 'em, yeah
Then I won't be missin' you
I won't be missin' you
And my lover's prayer would be all over
[Verse 7]
It got to be all over
Honey, all over
Don't keep my life goin' 'round
In so many circles
This is my lover's prayer, no
Come on
Come on home, no
[Outro]
This is my lover's prayer
I'm singin' out to you
And I hope it'll reach you, darlin'
This is my lover's prayer
I hope it gets
