Treat You Like a Prayer

You said-
Treat me like a prayer
You won't always be there
So, baby let me stare
Baby let me stare at you

When I met her in the city, we were free
Just two people talking lonely
at a party with our friends
Sipped her drink and smiled at me
Feeling overgrown
Hiding in the smell of my cologne

Pretty in a black dress
Living as an actress
Hey what you doing later
We should leave the madness
Sure, what's a lover for?
Girl who knew her worth
With a fire I adore

She said-
Treat me like a prayer
You won't always be there
So, baby let me stare
Baby let me stare at you

Walked the street between the lanterns giving light
Two months, living in the moment
With a girl with hazel eyes
Reckon that playing my mind
Distracted for a while
Putting up a shadow of a smile

Held her close
As her breathing started slowing
Wrapped up, underneath a
Lantern losing focus
No, I won't carry your ghost
Walked away in silence
Cause the fire got too close

She said-
Treat me like a prayer
You won't always be there
So, baby let me stare
Baby let me stare at you

I tried to call you on the phone
A photograph to make you feel known
But you were there to change the tone
And baby, I would make you my own
And I would say life isn't true
Without a relation to you

I would-
Treat you like a prayer
You won't always be there
So, baby let me stare
Baby let me stare at you
