[Verse 1: Simon Le Bon]
You saw me standing by the wall
Corner of a main street
And the lights are flashing on your window sill
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: Simon Le Bon]
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: Simon Le Bon]
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: Simon Le Bon]
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
[Bridge: Simon Le Bon]
Do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do
[Outro: Simon Le Bon]
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...
You saw me standing by the wall
Corner of a main street
And the lights are flashing on your window sill
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: Simon Le Bon]
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: Simon Le Bon]
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: Simon Le Bon]
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
[Bridge: Simon Le Bon]
Do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do
[Outro: Simon Le Bon]
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...
