Prayer After Dark

There are some
Who cannot see
The stars that shine at night when they should
And there are those
Who don't believe
That suffering will lead to something good

So I sit here by the fire
Sitting on an old truck tire
And pray for them their souls won't fall apart

Another phone call after dark
My hands to hold your fragile heart
To cradle it and keep it safe and warm
I'll never let you go
I'm always here you know
Your shelter from the cold unyielding storm

There are some
Who cannot see
That what they've got's not what they wanna lose
And there are those
Who don't believe
That destiny is not the part we choose

That's why I stay up late
Swearing to the Gods I'll take
Good care of those I love with all my heart

Another phone call after dark
My hands to hold your fragile heart
To cradle it and keep it safe and warm
I'll never let you go
I'm always here you know
Your shelter from the cold unyielding storm

Another phone call after dark
My hands to hold your fragile heart
To cradle it and keep it safe and warm
I'll never let you go
I'm always here you know
Your shelter from the cold unyielding storm

There are some
Who cannot see
That who they are is who they wanna be
And there are those
Who don't believe
That they can change themselves that easily

But they don't have to change
If they don't realy want
There's no one else I'd ask for them to be
