Prayer

Album: Peace of Mind

Song: Say a Prayer

(D. Glasper / M. Lillington)

(These lyrics are as they are written on the album sleeve, and may

vary slightly from those actually sung by David on the tracks)

Verse:

Sweet sugar pumping through my veins

Everywhere is on a wire

Sweet sugar you say it's just a game

Soon to be your one desire

When the devil holds your hand

Then you know he's in command

Of temptation

Like the beauty of a rose

Or a summer that will go

Where's salavation

Chorus:

Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me

Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me

Verse:

Sweet sugar your world just tumbles down

How you hunger for illusion

Sweet sugar will take more than you own

All you have is your confusion

You'll be standing in the rain

You'll be crying out in shame

For mercy

So you turn to every man

Say you need a helping hand

Don't desert me

Chorus:

Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me

Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me

Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me

Bridge:

I don't know what I've done with my life

I don't know what to think of all this wasted time

I was in search of paradise

Yet this seems a heavy price to pay

Chorus:

Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me

Won't you say a prayer

Say a little prayer, say a little prayer for me

Won't you say a prayer

Say a little prayer

Say a little prayer
