Dave Barnes - Prayers Of The Saints lyrics

Mama's alone where the sirens call They're filling up her mind like they fill the hall Mama can't fight what she don't know Baby looks fine while the cancer grows Talking about the prayers of the saints They can do what most men can't God bends his ears just to hear what they say Talking about the way they move Makes them do the things that they do Somewhere a saint is praying for you Papa's alone while the sun sets red Papa stands fine, baby lays in bed Papa blames this on what he don't know Baby looks fine while the cancer grows Talking bout the prayers of the saints They can do what most men can't God bends his ears just to hear what they say Talking about the way they move Makes them do the things they do Somewhere a saint is praying for you [x2]
