I Say a Little Prayer
The BossHoss Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The moment I wake up
Before I put on my jeans up
I say a little prayer for you
While combing my hair now
And wondering what hat to wear now
I say a little prayer for you

Forever, forever you´ll stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever, forever we never will part
Oh, how I love you
Together, together that´s how it must be
To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me

I run for my horse, 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 will love you
Forever, forever we never will part
Oh, how I love you
Together, together that´s how it must be
To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me

My darling, believe me ( my darling believe me)
For me there is no one but you
Please love me too (answer my prayer)
I´m in love with you ( please love me too)
Answer my prayer

Forever, forever you´ll stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever, forever we never will part
Oh, how I love you
Together, together that´s how it must be
To live without you
Forever, forever you´ll stay in my heart
And I will love you
Forever, forever we never will part
Oh, how I love you
Together, together that´s how it must be




To live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me
