my prayer şarkı sözü

i have been so far away
counting the time until today
so long i´ve waited for a chance
when i could spend some time with you
just with you

you are growing so very fast
and i know i´m always the very last, oh
to help you with a problem
to kiss your hurt if you should happen to fall down
fall down

but when i´m gone
i need you here to carry on
my son i know you will be strong
like a burning flame
you´re my claim
that´s why you´ve got my name
and just to show
come what may i love you so
and there will come a day
when all that´s mine is yours
to take good care of you and yours i swear
i swear
and this is my prayer

oh, yes
when i look at you, so hard to believe
you´re the younger version of older me
i swear
i swear
and this is my prayer
oh lord, this is my prayer
