There's a man waving his hat
At a starting aeroplane
On a faded photograph from long ago
And I wondered who he was
And who was on the plane
And where the flight was going to
And I felt kind of homesick
Although you were with me
Save a prayer, a prayer for me
When will I ever come back again
Save a prayer, a prayer for me
When will I ever come back
Come back again
When the circle is fulfilled
And the planes are coming back
Then I'll be there to welcome you home
And it will be my turn
And nothing shall be left
But memories and fading photographs
You see, I'm on my way
Some have to go, some have to stay
Save a prayer, a prayer for me
When will I ever come back again
Save a prayer, a prayer for me
When will I ever come back
Come back again
Save a prayer, a prayer for me
When will I ever come back again
Save a prayer, a prayer for me
When will I ever come back
Come back
When will I ever come back
Again
