Prayer lyrics

Album: Peace of Mind

Song: Say a Prayer
(D. Glasper / M. Lillington)
(These lyrics are as they are written on the album sleeve, and may
vary slightly from those actually sung by David on the tracks)

Verse:
Sweet sugar pumping through my veins
Everywhere is on a wire
Sweet sugar you say it`s just a game
Soon to be your one desire
When the devil holds your hand
Then you know he`s in command
Of temptation
Like the beauty of a rose
Or a summer that will go
Where`s salavation

Chorus:
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me

Verse:
Sweet sugar your world just tumbles down
How you hunger for illusion
Sweet sugar will take more than you own
All you have is your confusion
You`ll be standing in the rain
You`ll be crying out in shame
For mercy
So you turn to every man
Say you need a helping hand
Don`t desert me

Chorus:
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me

Bridge:
I don`t know what I`ve done with my life
I don`t know what to think of all this wasted time
I was in search of paradise
Yet this seems a heavy price to pay

Chorus:
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
Won`t you say a prayer
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me
Won`t you say a prayer
Say a little prayer
Say a little prayer
