Prayer for the Dying lyrics

Da da, da da, ah, ho-oo-oh-oo

Fearless people careless needle

Harsh words spoken and lives are broken

Forceful aging help me I'm fading

Heaven's waiting it's time to move on

Crossing that bridge with lessons I've learned

Playing with fire and not getting burned

I may not know what you're going through

But time is the space between me and you

Life carries on, ooh

It goes on

Just say die and that would be pessimistic

In your mind we can walk across the water

Please don't cry it's just a prayer for the dying

I just don't know what's got into me

Been crossing that bridge with lessons I've learned (learned)

Playing with fire and not getting burned (burned)

I may not know what you're going through

But time is the space between me and you

There is a light through that window

Hold on say yes while people say no

Life carries on, on, on, on, ooh

It goes on, oh-ee-oh, whoa-ee-oh, ho, oh

I'm crossing that bridge with lessons (I've learned)

I'm playing with fire and not getting burned (burned)

I may not know what you're going through

But time is the space between me and you

There is a light through that window

Hold on say yes while people say no

'Cause life carries on oh-ee-oh, whoa-ee-oh ho on

It goes on, oh-ee-on, it goes on

Whoah, whoah, life carries on

When nothing else matters

When nothing else matters

I just don't know what's got into me

It's just a prayer for the dying

For the dying
