|
She sits in the dark |
|
Quietly cursing him and this love |
|
While she's rehearsing every line |
|
She's gonna say when she walks away |
|
On a wing and a prayer |
|
Looking back at her in the mirror is a stranger |
|
Years that have passed, how they seemed to change her |
|
A woman once able to stand on her own |
|
Searches for strength to stand on her own |
|
On a wing and a prayer |
|
On a wing and a prayer |
|
She's leaving tonight |
|
Holding her heart in her hands |
|
Somewhere out there she knows that she'll find a love that understands |
|
Why she left there on a wing and a prayer |
|
She held on to maybe as long as she could, knowing he wouldn't |
|
Believeing he would, give her a single reason to stay |
|
To keep her from breaking away on a wing and a prayer |
|
On a wing and a prayer |
|
She's leaving tonight |
|
Holding her heart in her hands |
|
Somewhere out there she knows that she'll find a love that understands |
|
Why she left there on a wing and a prayer |
|
Somewhere out there she knows that she'll find a love that understands |
|
Why she left there on a wing and a prayer |
|
Oh, why she left there on a wing and a prayer |
