Dreamy afternoon 'neath the summer sun
We'd lie by the lake till the evening comes
I run my fingers through your sun streaked hair
Baby that's the power of prayer

Summer nights, summer's in the air
I stack the tables with the chairs
It's closing time and you're standing there
Baby that's the power of prayer

It's a fixed game without any rules
An empty table on a ship of fools
I'm holding hearts, I play the pair
Darling it's just the power of prayer

It's a fixed game without any rules
An empty table on a ship of fools
I'm holding hearts, I play the pair
I'm going all in 'cause I don't care

They say that love it comes and goes
But darling what, what do they know
I'm reaching for heaven, we'll make it there
Darling it's just the power of prayer
Baby it's just the power of prayer
Darling it's just the power of prayer

Last call, the bouncer shuts the door
"This Magic Moment" drifts across the floor
As Ben E. King's voice fills the air
Baby that's the power of prayer
