I'll pray for you Do you pray for me? How many nights do you lie dreaming I'm counting the days since you went away When I lost my heart, life lost all meaning What I would give to see you again And you slipped away from me without talking The look in

My father told me These are the nights that never die One day my father he told me "Son, don't let it slip away" "When you get older Your wild heart will live for younger days Think of me if ever you're afraid" He said, "One day you'll leave this world

I'll pray for you Do you pray for me? How many nights do you lie dreaming I'm counting the days since you went away When I lost my heart, life lost all meaning What I would give to see you again And you slipped away from me without talking The look in

De de de de de de day Save the day Baby when the night starts slipping When the night starts slipping When the night starts slipping away Boy you got my heartbeat skipping When you touch me even though The time is ticking away Just tell me it's not over

Soon I'm gonna slip away I'm so sleepy yeah I could lay my head on a piece of lead And imagine it was a springy bed 'Cause I'm sleepy, sleepy I'm so sleepy, yeah In the night I feel it creeping, creeping, creeping I can't keep my mind away from my dreams

I know you better than you It's never more than I can take I wouldn't have it any other way Slip away in the night You find me holding my breath for you But you're not yourself 'Cause you will never slip away Come and suffer here You find me on my knees
