"I Say A Little Prayer" lyrics

"I Say A Little Prayer"
(originally by Dionne Warwick)
(from "RESPECT" soundtrack)


(Say a little prayer for you)
The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little prayer for you
I'm combing my hair now
And wondering what dress to wear now
I say a little prayer for you

Forever and ever, you'll stay in my heart and I will love you
Forever and ever, we never will part, oh, how I love you
Together, forever that's how it must be, to live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me

I run for the bus, dear
But while riding I think of us, dear
I say a little prayer for you
At work, I just take time
And all through my coffee break-time
I say a little prayer for you

Forever and ever, you'll stay in my heart and I will love you
Forever and ever, we never will part, oh, how I love you
Together, forever that's how it must be, to live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me (Nobody but me)

Forever and ever, you'll stay in my heart and I will love you
Forever and ever, we never will part, oh, how I love you
Together, forever that's how it must be, to live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me

My darling, believe me
For me there is no one but you
Please love me too
I'm in love with you
(Answer my prayer, baby) Answer my prayer, baby
(Answer my prayer, baby) Say you love me, too
(Answer my prayer, baby) Oh, answer me right now, baby
(Answer my prayer) Hey

Forever and ever, you'll stay in my heart and I will love you
Forever and ever, we never will part, oh, how I love you
Together, forever that's how it must be, to live without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me (Nobody but me)

My darling, believe me
For me there is no one but you
Please love me true
I'm in love with you
(Answer my prayer, baby) Answer my prayer, baby
(Answer my prayer, baby) Answer me right now, baby
(Answer my prayer, baby) Yeah, answer my prayer
(Answer my prayer, baby) Answer my prayer
(Answer my prayer, baby) This is my prayer, baby
(Answer my prayer, baby) Oh, I'm in love with you
