Holding a Secret Prayer
Today I’ve been leading my heart on a lonely chase
Thinking of things in a million ways
As time just keeps slipping away
Like the rain falling from my sky
Every day and every night
Knowing the stars disappear because of the many clouds in sight
And Inside I hold a secret prayer
To have someone who would understood the tears I hide
And all of my emotional roller coaster rides
That has been bottled for year’s cause of pride
Oh so many times I‘ve tried to make a few new friends
Some hang around for a while then they disappear again
Just casting me aside far and wide
While my feelings cave in like a rising tide
As try not to cry wondering why I just can’t be satisfied having no friends in my life
And I know that just hanging out with me is getting kind of old
But I am so tired of being treated like I’m a common cold
Sure is a lonely road to not fit in where ever I go
Although I will keep holding on to my secret prayer
For that special friend out there somewhere
