The Lovers Prayer

For as the moon and sun do shine
my heart beats with yours everytime
and as you smile and look my way
I pray the Lord that time will stay

And as the seconds tick and swing
my love for you will never leave
such as the salt which lies in sea
same with the stars we always see

You cannot phantom all of them
for there are too many to comprehend
and as you try to count them all
take my hand incase you fall

For here I stand and will always be
by your side and in your dreams
for love is such a crazy thing
like a single rose salute in concrete

Hand in hand ill hold you close
listening to you breathe in noise
and as you exhale close your eyes
and hold your breath as if dear life

As you see its hard to breathe
this is what you do to me
for when I see you standing there
my lungs forget the taste of air

So as the minute hands proceeds
my life without you is incomplete
so grab my hand and stay awhile
for without you here it's hard to smile

Standing here I know the drill
to keep you close and always near
to keep you safe and from all fear
to whisper "i love you" inside your ear

To let you know you are my dream
my one and only, my everything
that's how much you mean to me
as long as the hands of time do swing

And even if they freeze in time
I'll never walk nor leave your side
for without you here I'd rather die
then to walk this world without my life

While the rain falls from the air
storm clouds form in atmosphere
and as the drops fall from the sky
my love for you will never die

One blade of grass, a single leaf
I'd give you the world if it were up to me
but since I can't, I fall to my knees,
"The Lover's Prayer" is what I need

"I pray the Lord will keep you safe
out of harmful and dangerous ways
keeps you happy through all your days
and memories of us will never fade

And as we live on each new day
and minutes and seconds do tick away
you'll always remember this special day
the day you took my breath away

I pray you cherish every memory
and lock them up but keep the key
incase you want to remember things
of how they once used to be

Incase you forget, I'll write them down
for as we grow and memories fade
I still want you to remember this day
the day we laughed the night away

I pray each night before you sleep
that God will keep you safe inside your sheets
and as you dream you'd dream of me
of future things we still deem to see

And as you wake you keep me close
just like a bouquet of a rose
and when you think back I hope you remember
the day I fell for you more than ever

As I sit here on bended knee
and grasp your hand while you sleep
I pray the Lord will allow us to live
together forever without an end

I pray the Lord will help you see
and understand my true feelings
for when we get old I hope you remember
the day I asked to be yours forever"

A prayers a prayer, and a word a word
a sentence a sentence, and a verb a verb
a thoughts a thought, and a thoughts to keep
the wonderful thought of you and me

I pray for you, and you pray for me
but inside my prayer holds a deeper meaning
for if you ever forget what has been said
come back and read and remember again

For The Lover's Prayer never fades
I quote and recite it everyday
so you will always remember just how much you mean
I can't give you the world, but here's all of me
