She was just beginning, there was nothing in her way
So many roads to choose from, many paths to take
How quickly life can change, oh, It must be a mistake
Not a man of faith, but tonight I'm gonna pray

Please don't take the ones I love
If there is any God above
Take me instead, I've had enough

I'm hoping for some high, higher power
I'm praying just tonight, some high power
From way up in the sky, higher power
Come make this right

Said it once before there is nothing left to say
Everything can change, it can change in just a day
Taking it for granted until it is too late
Not a man of faith, but today I'm gonna pray

Please don't take the ones I love
If there is any God above
Take me instead, I've had enough

I'm hoping for some high, higher power
Praying just tonight, some higher power
Way up in the sky, higher power
Make this right

Is anyone listening
Or am I'm talking to myself, am I crying in my bed, alone in my head?
Have we been given false hope?
Have we been given some rope?
Was never least anything at all?

I'm hoping for some high, higher power
Praying just tonight, some higher power
From way up in the sky, higher power
Praying just tonight, pleading for a life

I'm hoping for some high, higher power
Praying just tonight, some higher power
Make it alright

Higher power
Praying just tonight, pleading for a life
Asking with all my might
