Sara Groves - Say A Prayer lyrics

Childhood runs across the meadow, taken in the night Told that you'll be working in the city for a while It 's peering from the windows it's leaning in the doorway Flickering like a candle lying on the floor Say a prayer, say a prayer in the night Say a prayer, say a prayer in the night Childhood working with your papa chained to you mom This is all you live for Debts that linger on Bearing all the glory, bearing all the weight Knowledge of such hardship At such a tender age Say a prayer
