Pray Lyrics by Idle Cure

2nd Avenue

0

Pray!
Oh, c'mon!

I looked with a smile
Just to break the ice
The air was getting thicker
Ooh, you could cut it with a knife
I got his attention
Then he shut me down
He said, I've gotta run, have some fun
Don't preach to me now, no!

Oh, Lord
Tell me how to make a difference
Oh, Lord
Tell me what to do
Every time I ask
Every time I need some direction
You say, get down
Get down on your knees, and…

Pray for the heart of man
Pray for his open hand
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh...
Oh, just a little bit harder
Pray that you'll always be
A light the world can see
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh...
Ooh, you got to pray

I'm all wound up
Ooh, tried to say the right thing
Could tell it was over
It made no sense
"Heard the fat lady sing!"
Oh, he wouldn't even listen
No passion or love
All I remember the last thing he said
"I'm not gonna join your club", no!

Oh, Lord
Tell me how to make a difference
Oh, Lord
Tell me what to do
Every time I ask
Every time I need some direction
You say, get down
Get down on your knees, and…

Pray for the heart of man
Pray for his open hand
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh...
Oh, a little bit harder
Pray that you'll always be
A light the world can see
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh...
Ow!

Pray for the heart of man
Pray for his open hand
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh...
You know you got to pray
Pray that you'll always be
A light the world can see
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh...
Whoa, c'mon!

Pray for the heart of man
His hand!
Pray for his open hand
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Pray that you'll always be
A light the world can see
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh...
Let's make a difference, everybody!

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh...
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh...
Pray, pray
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh...
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh...
Whoa. yeah, whoa!
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh...
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh...
