First Ill Say a Prayer Then Ill Say Amen
As I walk through this garden
I see flowers carved in Stone
A million happy memories
Erased when you were called home
I can talk to you for hours
As if we were alone
Then end it with I love you
Like when we hung up the phone
First I’ll say a prayer
Then I’ll say Amen
I’ll give thanks for our time
And having got the chance
It’s easy to be bitter
I remind myself again
First I’ll say a prayer....
Then I’ll say Amen
My heart it’s been hardened
And it’s walls are standing strong
I know I’m not the only
To face a love that’s gone
Is it better to have lost
Than to have never loved at all
Would I have faced this burden
If it wasn’t for the fall
First I’ll say a prayer
Then I’ll say Amen
I’ll give thanks for our time
And having got the chance
It’s easy to be bitter
So I remind myself again
First I’ll say a prayer....
Then I’ll say Amen
I give thanks for every moment
I give thanks for seconds spent
For having known your love
Until we meet again
If word should come tomorrow
My days are coming to an end......
First I’ll say a prayer
Then I’ll say Amen
First I’ll say a prayer...
Then I’ll say.....Amen
