I Want to Say a Prayer Lyrics

Frozen like ice
Charlie Mingus on a rainy night
Row the boat, fisherman
One more time, one more time

Hey, it's all over now
Find a street lamp and take a bow
Dance with a stranger
Love has no fences now

And the gun's not loaded
If you want to talk it out
But I'm through explaining
What this life's all about

I want to say a prayer
Is anybody listening, anybody there?
I want to say a prayer
Is anybody there?

Walk down to the scene
Unborn babies and sidewalk machines
Love me in your dreams
One more time, one more time

And I'm standing right here
If you want to dance
So hold on, baby
'Cause this might be my last chance

I want to say a prayer
Is anybody listening, anybody there?
I want to say a prayer
Is anybody there?

I kneel at the altar of love's tenderness
I'm waiting in the doorway for angels to care
I'm fixing the roof but the rain's coming in
And I can't find the words
Or the courage to ask where you've been

I want to say a prayer
Is anybody listening, anybody there?
I want to say a prayer
Is anybody there?
