The words



Oh, the words
Wish they were true,
True for the one
We prayed together.
But its too late
For the one
We prayed together
Has now gone.

Oh , the words
Wish they were true
Now they hurt
Hurt so much
Cause the prayers
We prayed together
Are left unheard.

Oh, the words
Will be true
True for the one
We prayed together.
We have faith
Faith in God
Wish the one
Who has gone
Will be living
In different world
In his adore.
