• There she stands in a pretty black dress
    Wondering where her life will take her next
    She's had her fill of lonely days
    When will love finally come out to play

    She knows he doesn't love her
    She knows the truth
    But she goes on ahead and says I do
    And I can only watch from the sidelines
    Wondering what's going through her mind

    And in the night I whisper in her ear
    A simple prayer when she wants me near

    Just say a prayer
    And I'll be near
    Close your eyes and count to three
    They'll you'll stand right next to me
    Just say a prayer
    And I'll be near
    Take my hand and give me your trust
    I promise our love will be enough

    The wedding day rolls around
    And all her families here in town
    She's tryin' to figure why it doesn't feel right
    I tell her to take a look in my eyes

    Come on baby, what do see
    You'll see the answer right inside of me
    I'll offer you this once, won't do it twice
    Hurry before day turns to night

    And she walks away
    Head held down
    Not one answer
    Not a sound

    And in the night I whisper in her ear
    A simple prayer when she wants me near

    There she stands in a pretty white dress
    Wondering where her life will take her next
    She's had her fill of lonely days
    When will love finally come out to play

    She said the prayer
    And now I'm there
    She closed her eyes and counted to three
    Now her heart has finally found me
    Just say a prayer
    And I'll be near
    Take me hand I give you my all
    I promise that's all you'll need

    Close your eyes and count to three
    There you'll stand next to me
