I wanted to pray | |
I wanted to let you go on your way | |
I wanted to know why they laid there | |
Dying in the streets next to the restaurant | |
Where people were eating and yes | |
I wanted to pray | |
How do you pray in a world like this | |
You know, I see the people on TV | |
And they close their eyes and they bow their heads | |
And they say "Let us pray" | |
And it feels so cold and meaningless | |
And I wanted to pray | |
And I said | |
Tell me father | |
Tell me mother | |
Heavenly mother | |
And they said | |
When you pray | |
Pray alone by yourself | |
In the secret room of your heart | |
Don't go out into the church filled with people and pray | |
God hears every secret that you say | |
See all those people praying on TV and the churches | |
They like to make a big parade out of what they're doing | |
They think God hears them louder if they say it | |
Over and over and over and over and over again | |
But I say, God, but I say this | |
You are the prayer | |
Your eyes are the prayer | |
Your hand on your cheek | |
You are the prayer | |
Those words you want to speak | |
They are the prayer | |
That dance you make | |
When you're by yourself | |
Just before your mother calls you on the phone | |
You are the prayer | |
I tell you what | |
You gotta take it back from them | |
Because the prayers belong to you | |
All you gotta do is say hey hey | |
I'm down here too, I'm down here too | |
I'm down here too | |
And I hear you in the trees | |
And I hear you | |
And I'm near you | |
I wonder why there's so much suffering | |
I want to say thank you, thank you | |
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you | |
I wanted to say thank you, thank you | |
I wanted to say | |
I wanted to say | |
You are where I like it best | |
You are where I like it best | |
You are where I like it best | |
That's the Lords' prayer | |
"You are where I want to be" | |
So, amen, just amen | |
Amen, all by myself, amen, amen | |
I'm so lonely, just amen | |
And I'm rising, rising, just amen | |
You can look through my eyes | |
Hear through my hear | |
Look through my eyes |
