Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Say a little prayer for you

Say a little prayer for you

Well, I remember when you were my only friend

You took the time when no one else cared

You gave love endlessly and then you proved to me

No matter what, you'd always be there

And now I understand just how life's little plan

Can make it rough to say forever

But you've been there for me, so that's my guarantee

That we will always be together

[Verse 2]

When I have sleepless nights, that's when you hold me tight

You do it right, I say a little prayer for you

And when my dreams are through, I only think of you

And you do it right, I say a little prayer for you

[Verse 3]

We've had good times, that's true, we've had our bad times too

But through it all, it makes us stronger

We'll have to build our trust because it means too much

To give away to any other

But now I understand just how life's little plan

Can make it rough to say forever

But you've been there for me, so that's my guarantee

That we will always be together

[Verse 4]

When I have sleepless nights, that's when you hold me tight

And you do it right, I say a little prayer for you

And when my dreams are through, I only think of you

And you do it right, I say a little prayer for you

[Verse 5]

When I have sleepless nights, that's when you hold me tight

And you do it right, I say a little prayer for you

And when my dreams are through, I only think of you, oh

I say it, say it, say it, say it, say it, oh

[Verse 6]

Oh, yeah, yeah

I say a little prayer for you

Oh

Come on, oh

I'll say it, say it, say it, say it, say it

[Verse 7]

Say a prayer

Say a prayer

Say a prayer

Say a prayer

[Verse 8]

Alright

Come on

Oh, say a little prayer for you

Say

Come on

A prayer

I say a little prayer for you

[Verse 9]

And now I understand just how life's little plans

Can make it rough to say forever

But you've been there for me, so that's my guarantee

That we will always be together

[Verse 10]

Oh-oh, uh-oh-oh, uh-oh-oh

I say a little prayer for you

Uh-oh-oh, uh-oh-oh

I will, yeah, I'll say a little prayer for you

[Verse 11]

When I have sleepless nights, that's when you hold me tight

You do it right, I say a little prayer for you

And when my dreams fall through, I only think of you, oh

I say a little prayer for you

[Verse 12]

So far away

[Verse 13]

When I have sleepless nights, that's when you hold me tight

You do it right, I say a little prayer for you

And when my dreams fall through, I only think of you, oh

I say it, say it, say it, say it, say it, oh

My baby, my love

I say a little prayer for you
