I'm the morning I wake up

Before I put on my makeup

I say a little prayer for you
While brushing my hair now
And wondering which dress to wear now
I say a little prayer for you
Forever and ever
you'll stay in my heart
and I will love you
Together, forever
We never will part
Oh, how I'll love you
Forever and ever
that's how it must be
to live without you
It'll only be heartbreak for me
I run for the bus, dear
While riding I think of us, dear
I say a little prayer for you
At work I just take time
And all through my coffee break time
I say a little prayer for you
Forever and ever
you'll stay in my heart
and I will love you
Together, forever
We never will part
Oh, how I'll love you
Forever and ever
that's how it must be
to live without you
It'll only be heartbreak for me
Please darling believe me
When I say there's no one but you
Please love me true
