Lord Can You Hear My Prayer Lyrics
The Kelly Family
Lyrics
I'm searching for the gold but i can't find it in this game
i found a way to cope and now i'm swimming in the fame
i feel it in my bones, i won't be here for long to stay
'cause i'm choking in the coke and now i'm searching who's to blame
brother likes to listen well the sister likes a rollin' am i okay
Lord can you hear my prayer, can you hear me now
I see a land of gold and that's where children laugh and play
where nurses feed the old while i keep drinking my rosè
can you see what's my condition have i made my own religion
can you hear me pray
Lord can you hear my prayer, can you hear me now
Lord can you hear my prayer, can you hear me now
Lord can you hear my prayer, can you hear me now
Lord can you hear my prayer, can you hear me now
Lord can you hear my prayer, can you hear me now
Lord can you hear my prayer, can you hear me now
thank you for your lovin' thank you for your mercy
thank you for forgiving thank you for the ugly
thank you for your suffering
