In silent tears I pray
I pray that you will stay with me
Not one more day
Not one more night
But for all my life

I pray to God for second chances
I pray to God for hope
I pray to God that all will end
That we may begin again

Hope cannot be lost
Gained is all that hope can be
I pray that our chins will stay up
That the tears streaming down our cheeks
Stream out
That we have no more tears to cry
That we have no more pain to feel

Truly I would be in heaven
If it were just you and me
Running through oceans
Tears of regret
As they evaporate we fly and smile

I pray to God to make you smile
I pray to God to make you laugh
I pray to God to make you think
Of all you've got to lose
Of all you've got to live
Of all you've got to love

I know you think there is nothing left for you
I know you think there's no one there
And though I may not be much
And though I may be small
I want you to know
I will always be there
If we end up living a thousand miles away
I would walk to you to dry your tears
And every step will be worth it

I won't let you give up
I won't let you let go
I pray to God to help me
I pray to God for strength
I pray to God for mercy
But mostly I pray for you
