Last night, I prayed on a falling star that you'll never have a broken heart; Though the world is cold, just remember who you are... And I pray that you'll never have a rainy day, and no matter what people say, Even when it hurts, it'll be okay... Tomorrow brings new promise, so don't worry 'bout today; The first time I saw you, I knew my life had changed... I would've been dead and gone, but I found purpose when I brought you home, And even though I'm not there to tuck you in every day, I'm not far away... This is what a mother prays... Last night, I prayed on a falling star that you'll never have a broken heart; Though the world is cold, please remember who you are... And I pray that you'll never have a rainy day, and no matter what the people say, In your darkest hours, I'll help guide your way... Those dreams you have, I want you to chase 'em, chase 'em; This bond that we got, let nobody break it, break it... Even when I'm on the road, and I can't see your face, this music will never take your place; I love you Chase, I love my Chase... And that's why last night, I prayed on a falling star that you'll never have a broken heart; Though the world is cold, remember who you are... And I pray that you'll never have a rainy day, and no matter what the people say, Even when it hurts, it'll be okay... And I pray that you'll never have a rainy day, and no matter what the people say, In your darkest hours, I'll help light your way... This what a mother prays... Your daddy loves you and I love you too; Sorry we couldn't work it out for you, but we gon' do what's best for you... I pray, oh, I pray; I love you, 'cause this what a mother prays...
