Breathe some faith into my chest
Lay me down, I need the rest
Ever since the sky turned grey
I've waited for the perfect day
Hey now - it seems you've always
Touched me like the sun
There's no escape for the broken-hearted
There's no return once you've lost your way
I say a prayer now our love's departed
That you'll come back to stay
And bring the perfect day
Blinded by a crazy light
I fell into the darkest night
Those magic ties
The two of us
I couldn't see it turn to dust
Hey now - it seems you've always
Reached me like the sun
There's no escape for the broken-hearted
There's no return once you've lost your way
(I say a prayer) I say a prayer now your love's departed
That you'll come back to stay
Bring back the perfect day
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
Hey now - it seems you've always
Reached me like the sun
There's no escape for the broken-hearted
There's no return once you've lost your way
I say a prayer now your love's departed
That you'll come back to stay
Bring back the perfect day!
(Mmhm, ooh)
(I say a prayer)
Perfect day
(Mmhm, ooh, ooh)
(I say a prayer)
[spoken:]
(Closing time, closing time, ladies and gentlemen)
(Thank you very much for coming.)
(Make your way out through the exits)
Lay me down, I need the rest
Ever since the sky turned grey
I've waited for the perfect day
Hey now - it seems you've always
Touched me like the sun
There's no escape for the broken-hearted
There's no return once you've lost your way
I say a prayer now our love's departed
That you'll come back to stay
And bring the perfect day
Blinded by a crazy light
I fell into the darkest night
Those magic ties
The two of us
I couldn't see it turn to dust
Hey now - it seems you've always
Reached me like the sun
There's no escape for the broken-hearted
There's no return once you've lost your way
(I say a prayer) I say a prayer now your love's departed
That you'll come back to stay
Bring back the perfect day
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
Hey now - it seems you've always
Reached me like the sun
There's no escape for the broken-hearted
There's no return once you've lost your way
I say a prayer now your love's departed
That you'll come back to stay
Bring back the perfect day!
(Mmhm, ooh)
(I say a prayer)
Perfect day
(Mmhm, ooh, ooh)
(I say a prayer)
[spoken:]
(Closing time, closing time, ladies and gentlemen)
(Thank you very much for coming.)
(Make your way out through the exits)
