I wanted to prayI wanted to let you go on your wayI wanted to know why they laid thereDying in the streets next to the restaurantWhere people were eating and yesI wanted to prayHow do you pray in a world like thisYou know, I see the people on tvAnd they close their eyes and they bow their headsAnd they say Let us prayAnd it feels so cold and meaninglessAnd I wanted to prayAnd I saidTell me fatherTell me motherHeavenly motherAnd they saidWhen you prayPray alone by yourselfIn the secret room of your heartDon't go out into the church filled with people and prayGod hears every secret that you saySee all those people praying on tv and the churchesThey like to make a big parade out of what they're doingThey think God hears them louder if they say itOver and over and over and over and over againBut I say, God, but I say thisYou are the prayerYour eyes are the prayerYour hand on your cheekYou are the prayerThose words you want to speakThey are the prayerThat dance you makeWhen you're by yourselfJust before your mother calls you on the phoneYou are the prayerI tell you whatYou gotta take it back from themBecause the prayers belong to youAll you gotta do is say hey heyI'm down here too, I'm down here tooI'm down here tooAnd I hear you in the treesAnd I hear youAnd I'm near youI wonder why there's so much sufferingI want to say thank you, thank youThank you, thank you, thank you, thank youI wanted to say thank you, thank youI wanted to sayI wanted to sayYou are where I like it bestYou are where I like it bestYou are where I like it bestThat's the Lords' prayerYou are where I want to beSo, amen, just amenAmen, all by myself, amen, amenI'm so lonely, just amenAnd I'm rising, rising, just amenYou can look through my eyesHear through my hearLook through my eyes
