Everyone waits for a knock on the door

Waiting for someone, who knows what it's for

Cause we spend a lot of money

Feeling bad and looking fine

I'll try to sum it up in a few simple lines


Oh darling, life is what you pray for

But love is what you stay for

And I know it's pretty damn funny how simple it can be

But you didn't hear that from me


Everyone says that it's covered in pain

Waiting for someone who will take on the blame

Oh it takes a lot of courage

To know you're not alone

The sooner you stand up, the sooner you'll know


Oh baby, life is what you pray for

But love is what you stay for

And I know it's pretty damn funny how simple it can be

But you didn't hear that from me


When I hear you crying at night

Like the world is on your shoulders

I'll hold you tight

Cause I know a secret or two

And the least I can do is share it with you


Share it with you 

Share it baby


Oh, life is what you pray for

Love is what you stay for

And I know it's pretty damn funny how simple it can be

But you didn't hear that from me


Life is what you pray for

You didn't hear that from me


Love is what you stay for

You didn't hear that from me


Life is what you pray for

You didn't hear that from me
