Lyrics

[Verse 1]

The moment I wake up

Before I put on my makeup

I say a little prayer for you

[Verse 2]

While combing my hair now

And wondering what dress to wear now

I say a little prayer for you

[Chorus]

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 mean heartbreak for me

[Verse 3]

I run for the bus, dear

While riding, I think of us, dear

I say a little prayer for you

[Verse 4]

At work I just take time

And all through my coffee-break time

I say a little prayer for you

[Chorus]

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 mean heartbreak for me

[Bridge]

I say a little prayer for you

I say a little prayer for you

[Chorus]

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 mean heartbreak for me

[Outro]

My darling, believe me

For me there is no one but you

Please, love me too

I'm in love with you

Answer my prayer

Say you love me too

[Outro]

Why don't you answer my prayer, yeah?

You know every day I say a little prayer

I said, I say, I say a little prayer

Why don't you just answer my prayer?
