Lyrics

WHEN YOU DON’T HAVE A PRAYER

Sometimes, when you don’t have a prayer
Then a song will have to do
Well, here it is
This is your song
Let it be a prayer for you

You’re out of luck
You’re out of hope
Your back’s to the wall
All of the clichés hold true
You’ve given up
You’ve broken down
You can’t go on
Seems there’s nothing left to do

Just remember that hope
Can catch you unaware
The verse will come round
The song starts again
There’s a still place in the wind

Sometimes, when you don’t have a prayer
Then a song will have to do
Well, here it is
This is your song
Let it be a prayer for you

Let me be your Sabbath
You can rest in me
I’ll be the candle that glows from the inside
The first glimmer that you see
I’ll be the face that waits in the window
The first star you wish on at night
I’ll be the one you carry with you
The whisper “it’ll be all right”

Sometimes, when you don’t have a prayer
Then a song will have to do
Well, here it is
Here is your song
Let it be a prayer for you

Just remember that hope
Can catch you unaware
The verse will come round
The song starts again
There’s a still place in the wind

Because sometimes, when you don’t have a prayer
Then a song will get you through
Well, here I am
I am your song
Let me be a prayer for you

Let me be your Sabbath
