Song lyrics

The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little prayer for you
While combing my hair, now
And wondering what dress to wear, now
I say a little prayer for you

[Chorus:]
Forever, forever you'll stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever and ever we never will part
Oh, how I'll love you
Together, together, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me

I run for the bus, dear
While riding I think of us, dear
I say a little prayer for you
At work, I just take time
And all through my coffee break-time
I say a little prayer for you

[Chorus]

I say a little prayer for you
I say a little prayer for you

[Chorus]

My darling, believe me
For me there is no one but you....
Please, love me too
I am in love with you
Answer my prayer
Say you'll love me too
Why don't you answer my prayer?
You know, every day I say a little prayer
I say, I say a little prayer



I Say a Little Prayer (performed by Dianna Warwick)

The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little prayer for you
While combing my hair, now
And wondering what dress to wear, now
I say a little prayer for you

[Chorus:]
Forever, forever you'll stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever and ever we never will part
Oh, how I'll love you
Together, together, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me

I run for the bus, dear
While riding I think of us, dear
I say a little prayer for you
At work, I just take time
And all through my coffee break-time
I say a little prayer for you

[Chorus]

I say a little prayer for you
I say a little prayer for you

[Chorus]

My darling, believe me
For me there is no one but you....
Please, love me too
I am in love with you
Answer my prayer
Say you'll love me too
Why don't you answer my prayer?
You know, every day I say a little prayer
I say, I say a little prayer

The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little pray for you
While combing my hair now,
And wondering what dress to wear now,
I say a little prayer for you

[Chorus:]
Forever, and ever, you'll stay in my heart

And I'm in love with you (answer his pray)
Answer my prayer now babe (answer his pray)
Say you'll love me too

[Chorus]
(oooh)
