Lyrics
There's a freight train poundin', a knife that's twisted and turnin'
And my mind is weary, all my bridges burnin'
If I were you and you were me
Where wuold you wanna be?
Would you come here for sympathy?
CHORUS: Won't you say a prayer for me tonight
With you by my side I will be alright
Won't you say a prayer for me tonight
And please stay with me tonight
There's a pain behind my dark and troubled life
And all that I can find is that I'm runnin' blind
So won't you please take my hand and show me the way
I hope that you will understand
CHORUS
Won't you pray?
CHORUS
