Lyrics
"Say A Prayer For The Lonely"
words & music by Tirk Wilder
There's a lady down the road, her husband died ten years ago,
I go down and mow her lawn when I can,
She'll talk the ear right off your head,
It's been so long since he's been dead,
And she's still missing that old man,
So if you're like me, if you've got a one and only,
Get on your knees, thank the Man upstairs,
And while you're there,
Say a Prayer for the Lonely, Say A Prayer for the Lonely,
You can see them everywhere,
There's people that nobody cares for,
Passin' through this world all alone,
In a restaurant with a meal for one,
Or standing in the setting sun,
Whispering a secret to a tombstone,
REPEAT CHORUS
Bridge:
Pray for every lonesome soul,
To find the one who'll make them whole.
Repeat CHORUS
