This Ain't a Song (It's a Prayer)

I wonder how many thousand times
I tried to put you right out of my mind
How many times
And how many ways I tried

Ain't no use in sayin' I don't miss you
Like I said so many times before
I might as well say
I don't live and breathe anymore, oh, no

In fact there's never a day goes by
That I don't think about the love we had
Never a day
I don't wish I had you back again, oh

And so I'm sending this prayer tonight
To you, my love, wherever you are
Out in the world
Under the Moon and stars, oh

This ain't a song, it's a prayer
To my true love
Out there, somewhere
This ain't a song, it's a prayer, oh
This ain't a song
It's a love gone wrong
It's time to pick up the pieces
Since you been gone
This ain't a song, it's a prayer, oh

And so I'm sending this prayer tonight
To you, my love, wherever you are
Out in the world
Under the Moon and stars, oh

This ain't a song, it's a prayer
To my true love
Out there, somewhere
This ain't a song, oh, it's a prayer, it's a prayer
This ain't a song
It's a love gone wrong
It's time to pick up the pieces
Since you been gone
This ain't a song, it's a prayer, oh

Out there, somewhere, oh
Won't you, won't you hear my prayer?
Hear my prayer, oh, yeah
