When I wake alone at night, and you’re so far away
I say a little prayer for you, and everything’s okay
There’s sunlight in your sparkling eyes, and summer in your smile
I’m sending out this little prayer, you’ll stay here for a while

‘Cause heaven knows I been lonely
Oh, but mercy came to me
Heaven must have sent you down
To set my poor heart free

So when I fall asleep at night, your angel face I see
Thank heaven for this little prayer that sent you here to me

‘Cause heaven knows I been lonely
Oh, but mercy came to me
Heaven must have sent you down
To set my poor heart free

So when I fall asleep at night, your angel face I see
Thank heaven for this little prayer that sent you here to me

Thank heaven for this little prayer that sent you here to me
