Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little prayer for you.
While combing my hair now
And wond'ring what dress to wear now
I say a little prayer for you...
Forever, and ever, you'll stay in my heart, and I'll love you
Forever, and ever, we never will part, oh I love you
Living without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me...
I run for the bus dear, while riding I think of us dear,
I say a little prayer for you
At work I just take time, and all through my coffee break time
I say a little prayer for you...
Forever, and ever, you'll stay in my heart, and I'll love you
Forever, and ever, we never will part, oh I love you
Together, forever, that's how it must be
Living without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me...
My darling believe me
For me there is no one but you
Please love me too
(answer his prayer)
And Im in love with you
(answer his prayer)
Answer my prayer baby
(answer his prayer)
Forever, and ever, you'll stay in my heart, and I'll love you
Forever, and ever, we never will part, oh I love you
Together, forever, that's how it must be
Living without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me...

Rupert Everett should have won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his role as George in My Best friend's Wedding.. the Say a Little Prayer restaurant scene was so iconic .. to that it was what the film is best remembered for ..
@TheStepmonkey
I agree! he was just a side character but he stole the whole movie 👏 His charisma is unmatched
@y0urboy
Over Robin Williams in Good Will Hunting??? Not a chance.
@lawrencelou3545
@@y0urboy Robin Williams was a great actor but never truly outstanding in that movie.. He should have won the award earlier in Dead Poet's Society..
