The only time i prayed


She says, "I love the way you see me"
Like I could ever see her any other way
I write these songs instead of sleeping
Still, there's so much that I won't get a chance to say

The only time I prayed was in my bedroom
I never got the sense anybody heard me speak
It's funny how the dark can make us all believers
I bet He watches down and says, "This is when they'll ask for me"
(Sweet memories, sweet memories)

Oh, I loved you in the evening
Oh, and every other second of the day
And although my heart was always breaking
When you laughed, all of the pieces found a place

At this point, I should say, I can recall her perfume
Scenes of where we're from, and dreams, and fields
And on that autumn day with those curtains see through
Paris in the background, and her swaying on the balcony
(Sweet memories, sweet memories)

Any other lover I stole away tonight
Any other lover I stole away tonight
Stole away
Any other lover I stole away tonight
Any other lover I stole away tonight
Any other lover I stole away tonight

When the tears had started streaming
In the name of love that never could have stayed
But aren't we lucky that we knew the feeling?
When it was true and all the world just fell away

I'll talk about your smile, your song, your virtue
But there's life in smaller things and they're gonna stay with me
Darling, in this world, they'll try to hurt you
Heavy is the heart that once upon a time was free
(Sweet memories, sweet memories)

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
