It’s just a prayer Don’t expect too much You weren’t there Are you ever there at all?
Heard a siren Mistook it for your cry I ran to find you I’d forgotten that you’d died
Loneliness is the home The way things fall I dreamt you were alone At the Western Wall
I took a walk The wind was blowing from the south I can’t get warm And I can’t hold you close The cracks in the stones The hand written notes The sound of prayers The stories of ghosts
Loneliness is the home The way things fall I dreamt you were alone At the Western Wall
Loneliness is the home The way things fall I dreamt you were alone There was no way on The desert shifts and moans As it shrouds the sun The dust is in our mouths This dream is done
It’s just a prayer Some old sad words Sung into the air I pray somewhere you heard
