Your name was like a prayer to me Safely kept in the corners of my heart With one utterance I was afraid it would Send you away If I could do it over I would say your name every day And cherish it like a prayer unto my soul Our love could have healed that hole That I know pained you But my lips could only speak truth And your ears were dead to honesty Your feet and head took you away from me

A Lover's Prayer
Your name was like a prayer to me Safely kept in the corners of my heart With one utterance I was afraid it would Send you away If I could do it over I would say your name every day And cherish it like a prayer unto my soul Our love could have healed that hole That I know pained you But my lips could only speak truth And your ears were dead to honesty Your feet and head took you away from me
