lyrics

OLD PRAYER

I used to pray when I was a child
Please god don't take them yet
Now he sings when the day is done
Now she stands in the setting sun
They find a way to say goodbye
One word at a time
Now he sings when the sun is low
Now she says I know what I know
I'm learning how to keep them here
Two rooms in my mind
There he sings when the fire is low
There she says I’ll go when I go
I used to pray when I was a child
Please god don't take them yet
One day you'll sing when the day is done
And I will stand in the setting sun
