Sometimes it's the flesh And the way it seems to yearn For all the magic of a single perfect touch
Sometimes it's the soul And it's waiting for salvation You know when you get it there can never be too much
There are times I've got to run Times I've got to hide Things I've left undone Things I cast aside So many things to try So many things denied If I ever tell you the truth Would you ever believe me Show me the proof I'm so scared that you'd leave me
You think I fly like an angel without any care Higher and higher as if I'm breathing sacred air
Everybody's ready to fly But the storms are never so very far And you think my life is shining like a star But the fears are never very far The nightmare's never very far
We always seem so much braver than we ever are We always dream we'd be braver but we never are Let's run away Let's go too far
Say a prayer...
Say a prayer for those who crawl Say a prayer for those who run Say a prayer so all will know There's a better life to come
Say a prayer for all the lost Say a prayer for the unborn Say a prayer for all the young It takes a fire to keep them warm
Say a prayer for those obsessed Say a prayer for those enslaved Say a prayer to beat the drums From the cradle to the grave
Say a prayer for all the saints Say a prayer for all the sins Let the dancing never end Let the future now begin
Say a prayer to all the gods Some are near and some are far Say a prayer to all the gods Make us braver than we are
Say a prayer to all the gods Some are near and some are far Say a prayer to all the gods Make us braver than we are
