Prayin' For You/Superman
Anthony Hamilton Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
And every time you step in a room you impress them
All I see is a traveling blessing
All you are is a walk of perfection
They don't know how I feel about you
They don't know what I see in you I do, I do
Get together you never met me
Never got the letters I wrote for you for you
All my nights just dreaming about you
Always just praying about you, praying about you, praying about you
If I had one wish, I wish this dream was true
And if I had somewhere to go, I hope it was with you
I pack my bags up anyway ready for this travel
Fill my truck with all our stuff and kicking up some gravel
If I had one wish, I wish this dream was true
I spend my time on my knees just praying for you
I spend my time on my knees just praying for you
The whole world knows that your not ordinary
Part woman rose the sweetest berries
Woman like you so fine that its scary
I name my daughter after you if you let me
They don't know how I feel about you
They don't know what I see in you I do, I do
Get together you never met me
Never got the letters I wrote for you for you
Spend my time just thinking about you
All my nights just dreaming about you
Always just praying about you, praying about you, praying about you
If I had one wish, I wish this dream was true
And if I had somewhere to go, I hope it was with you
I pack my bags up anyway ready for this travel
Fill my truck with all our stuff and kicking up some gravel
If I had one wish, I wish this dream was true
I spend my time on my knees just praying for you
I spend my time on my knees just praying for you
I spend my time on my knees just praying for you
I spend my time on my knees just praying for you
I'll spend my time
