no one to care and no one to hold.
yet the lord knows that i'm needing sombody like you,
just like you.

can you see the passion burning in my eyes?
do you sence the rush you give my heart?
and if you knew the secret way i feel for you,
would you come running to me or would you turn away?

chorus:
at night i pray (pray!)
with hope and faith. (faith)
as i lay me down to sleep i pray together we will be.
and there will come time, when you'll be mine, all mine,
and i'll be yours always.
but until that day comes at night i pray.

should i feel these emotions inside?
should i reveal what's locked up in my soul?
i'm so afraid but it's something that you've got to know.

how i want to touch you every time you're near.
i long to feel your body next to mine.
and if you knew the secret love i have for you
would you come running to me or would you turn away?

chorus

if all my prayers were answered
our love would be enraptured.
we would find our heaven inside each other's arms.
this lonely room would finally see the sun shine through.
but until that day every night i pray.
i'll get down on my knees, i'll get down on my knees and pray.....
