Dream Prayer (Live) - Chantress Seba

Woke up this morning and thought I was fine Walked in the kitchen a quarter to nine Poured me some coffee Read me some news When I looked up all hell broke loose There's a hole in the roof, it's coming right through The water's all gone cold Heater's making noise again and the bread's all growing mould Songbird singing in that old oak tree I'm looking up at you, you're looking down on me Promise you this really ain't as bad as it may seem I'm living the American dream I'm living the American dream I hate to let my old lady down It's time I took her out on the town If I had my way I'd give her the world Lord only knows how I love that girl But the yard needs mowing, bills need paying Phone's ringing off the line I got me a list of honey dues And I just can't find the time Songbird singing in that old oak tree I'm looking up at you, you're looking down on me Promise you this really ain't as bad as it may seem I'm living the American dream I'm living the American dream Songbird singing in that old oak tree I'm looking up at you, you're looking down on me Promise you this really ain't as bad as it may seem I'm living the American dream I'm living the American dream I'm living the American dream I'm living the American dream

Life is a mystery Everyone must stand alone I hear you call my name And it feels like home Come on Miami! When you call my name, it's like a little prayer I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there In the midnight hour, I can feel your power Just like a prayer, you know I'll take you there I hear your voice Let's sing this together! (It's like an angel sighing) I have no choice, I hear your voice (Feels like flying) I close my eyes (Oh God, I think I'm falling) Out of the sky, I close my eyes (Heaven help me) When you call my name it's like a little prayer I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there In the midnight hour, I can feel your power Just like a prayer, you know I'll take you there Like a child (Here we go!) (You whisper softly to me) You're in control, just like a child (I'm gonna give you another chance) (Now I'm dancing) It's like a dream (No end and no beginning) You're here with me, it's like a dream (Let the choir sing) When you call my name, it's like a little prayer I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there In the midnight hour, I can feel your power Just like a prayer, you know I'll take you there When you call my name, it's like a little prayer I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there In the midnight hour, I can feel your power Just like a prayer, you know I'll take you there Come on put your hands together! Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery Just like a dream, you are not what you seem Just like a prayer, no choice, your voice can take me there Just like a prayer, I'll take you there It's like a dream to me Just like a prayer, I'll take you there It's like a dream to me Just like a prayer, I'll take you there It's like a dream to me Just like a prayer, I'll take you there It's like a dream to me When you call my name, it's like a little prayer I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there (In the midnight hour, I can feel your power) (Just like a prayer, you know I'll take you there) When you call my name, it's like a little prayer I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there (In the midnight hour, I can feel your power) (Just like a prayer, you know I'll take you there) When you call my name, it's like a little prayer I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there In the midnight hour, (I can feel your power) (Just like a prayer, you know I'll take you there) When you call my name, it's like a little prayer I'm down on my knees, (I wanna take you there) (In the midnight hour, I can feel your power) Just like a prayer, you know I'll take you there Like a prayer Your voice can take me there Life is mystery Everyone must stand alone I hear you call my name And it feels like home

Spitfire into my cold mind There's love on a tight wire hanging in Birds fly out of a coal mine With your hand inside mine strolling in Gotta give into my own mind Gotta give into the times that I didn't try Gotta give into my own life Gotta give into the love that went right on by Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Home time bell ringing on, son It's time to push on somewhere you've never been Hometown blood in my own sound Could I have been home somewhere I'll never be again? I gotta give into my own mind I gotta give into the times that I didn't try Gotta give into my own life Gotta give into the love that went right on by Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (love went right on by) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (love went right on by) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (love went right on by) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Spitfire into my cold mind There's love on a tight wire hanging in Birds fly out of a coal mine With your hand inside mine strolling in
