I only pray at night

I only pray at night when the world disappears
Put away and out of sight, I confront my fears
I am proud, I am strong, I’m endowed just as long
As it’s light, I only pray
At night

I only try so hard to make you understand
I’ve got an unmarked card, you’ve got the upper hand
I’m afraid to behave in a way that would leave me scarred
I only try
So hard

And it’s funny, ain’t it funny, what ain’t funny in the dark
Its a mystery to me what my mind will see
And it’s something, ain’t it something, when you miss that mark
And you get down on your knees to pray

I only fly so high until I come back down
Only travel so far until I turn around
If you can’t wait for me to land go on ahead I understand
If you can’t try, I only fly
So high

Make me cry, cry, cry

I don’t know where to go when it don’t seem right

I only fly so high
I only try so hard
I only pray at night
