I Pray
Here me O' Lord I pray
I do not think I can make it another day
Please return to me the "One" that walked away
She was my pride and my joy; she was not a plaything or wild fling
She was true blue, honest, and sincere
She was the "One " I held so dear
She bore me two sons and a daughter
If together again, I promise a whole tribe, we will make for you
I deserve no forgiveness or mercy, again I know
Don't do it for me but, for them
They also desire us to be as we were
They have told me so, I know, welcome to the real world
I have no feelings left in my bones, I now survive all alone
All I ever wanted was to be loved
I guess I did not know, what it was or how much it would cost
To lose or to replace it
Help me O' Lord I pray, for now I am willing to pay
A thought by Sinbad the Sailor Man
