christmas without a prayer

christmas without a prayer

no one to go to church with

and run their fingers through my hair

no one to buy me things i don't want

bright-colored ties

monogrammed things

an album by wings

christmas without a prayer

no one to feed the birds with

from cold park benches

icy air

no one to tell me

the first date's too soon

no one to show me

pictures of her kids

the first i've heard of kids

i'm saying a prayer

i'll never despair

i'm laying it bare

i know there's a brighter day

i'm saying a prayer

i'll never despair

i'm laying it bare

i know there's a brighter day christmas without a prayer

no one to eat thai with

it's all that's open anywhere.
