[Verse 1]
You saw me standing by the wall
Corner of a main street
And the lights are flashing on your window sill
All alone ain't much fun
So you're looking for the thrill
And you know just what it takes
And where to go

[Chorus]
Don't say a prayer for me now
Save it 'til the morning after
No, don't say a prayer for me now
Save it 'til the morning after

[Verse 2]
Feel the breeze deep on the inside
Look you down into your well (Do-do-do-do-do)
If you can, you'll see the world in all his fire (Do-do-do-do-do)
Take a chance like all dreamers
You can't find another way (Do-do-do-do-do)
You don't have to dream it all
Just live a day (Do-do-do-do-do)

[Chorus]
Don't say a prayer for me now
Save it 'til the morning after
No, don't say a prayer for me now
Save it 'til the morning after
Save it 'til the morning after
Save it 'til the morning after

[Verse 3]
Pretty looking road
I try to hold the rising floods that fill my skin (Do-do-do-do-do)
Don't ask me why, I'll keep my promise
Melt the ice (Do-do-do-do-do)
And you wanted to dance
So I asked you to dance
But fear is in your soul (Do-do-do-do-do)
Some people call it a one-night stand
But we can call it paradise (Do-do-do-do-do)

[Chorus]
Don't say a prayer for me now
Save it 'til the morning after
No, don't say a prayer for me now
Save it 'til the morning after
Save it 'til the morning after
Save it 'til the morning after
Save it 'til the morning after
Save it 'til the morning after

[Bridge]
Do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do

[Outro]
Save a prayer 'til the morning after
Save a prayer 'til the morning after
Save a prayer 'til the morning after
Save a prayer 'til the morning after

Duran Duran

DURAN DURAN has a total of over 80 million records sold, 18 American hit singles, 30 UK top 30 tunes, and a global presence which guarantees them huge concert audiences on five continents. They’ve managed to fuse pop music, art, technology and fashion with a unique sense of style and confidence. Princess Diana also admitted that Duran Duran was her favourite Band among others.

Bassist John Taylor has said the original vision for the band’s sound was ‘to fuse the Sex Pistols and Chic’ after hearing those two bands back-to-back on a pub jukebox one night.
