the moment i wake up
before i put on my makeup
by the time i get to phoenix
she’ll be rising
i say a little prayer for you
she’ll find the note
i left hanging on her door
while combing my hair now
she’ll laugh when she reads
the part that says i’m leaving
and wondering what dress to wear now
i say a little prayer for you
’cause i’ve left that girl
so many times before
forever and forever
by the time i make albuquerque
she’ll be working
you’ll stay in my heart
and i will love you
forever and ever
she’ll probably stop at lunch
and give me a call
we never will part
and how i love you
together together
but she’ll just hear that
phone keep on ringing
that’s how it must be
to live without you would
off the wall
only mean heartbreak for me
that’s all
i run for the bus dear
while riding i think of us dear
by the time i make oklahoma
she’ll be sleeping
i say a little prayer for you
she’ll turn softly and
call my name out low
at work i just take time
and she’ll cry just to feel
and all through my coffee breaktime
i’d really leave her
i say a little prayer for you
though time and time
i’ve tried to tell her so
i say a little prayer for you
she just didn’t know
i would really go
no she didn’t know i’d go
