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?
