I Say a Little Prayer
Margarita Saludo Lyrics
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 wondering what dress to wear now
I say a little prayer for you
Forever forever, you'll stay in my heart and I'll love you
Forever and ever, we never will part, Oh how I love 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 forever, you'll stay in my heart, and I'll love you
Forever forever we never will part, oh how I'll love you
Together together that's how it must be to live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me
(...)
I say a little prayer for you
I say a little prayer for you
Forever forever, you'll stay in my heart and I will love you
Forever and ever we never will part Oh how I'll love you
Together together that's how it must be To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me
(Darling believe me...)
