I Prayed

by jackie-harrington

I prayed and prayed and prayed and prayed For you to come and save the day My sun was gone My skies were gray But then you left and went away So I prayed And I prayed for you that night I gave everything so you could shine So please stay away I can't breathe when you're around Leave it at bay I'm trying to stay above the ground So I prayed Then you burnt me with that cigarette So I caved Now I'm here with these regrets And now I don't pray Cause you took all the faith in me Now I pay Every night when I can't sleep Pray for me
