The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little prayer for you
While combing my hair, now
And wondering what dress to wear, now
I say a little prayer for you
Cmaj7 Cmaj7(add6) B7
Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
And I will love you
Cmaj7 Cmaj7(add6) B7
Forever, forever, we never will part
Oh, how I'll love you
Cmaj7 Cmaj7(add6) B7
Together, together, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would 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
Cmaj7 Cmaj7(add6) B7
Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
And I will love you
Cmaj7 Cmaj7(add6) B7
Forever, forever, we never will part
Oh, how I'll love you
Cmaj7 Cmaj7(add6) B7
Together, together, that's how it must be
To live without you
Would only be heartbreak for me

Oh, how I'll love you
Cmaj7 Cmaj7(add6) B7
Together, together, that's how it must be

Would only be heartbreak for me
