Pray for Dawn
9/7/2025Aria v1
[Verse 1]
When love is pain, and pain is all I know,
The hardest thing is learning to let go.
It lingers quiet where the shadows creep,
It wakes me crying when I should be asleep.
[Pre-Chorus]
No matter how I try to hide,
It’s waiting there, right by my side.
[Chorus]
Love don’t quit, it carries on,
Even when the feeling’s gone.
Round and round, the night drags on…
All I can do is pray for dawn.
[Verse 2]
A promise made, a promise kept,
But I can’t count the tears I’ve wept.
This empty silence is more than I can take,
Lord, I’m breaking with every breath I make.
[Chorus]
Love don’t quit, it carries on,
Even when the feeling’s gone.
Round and round, the night drags on…
All I can do is pray for dawn.
[Bridge]
Shine a light, Lord, lead me through,
I’ve got nothing left but You.
[Final Chorus]
Love don’t quit, it carries on,
Even when the feeling’s gone.
Round and round, till hope is gone…
All I can do is pray for dawn.
[Outro]
All I can do… is pray for dawn.
