WHY DO YOU WHISPER, GREEN GRASS?
WHY TELL THE TREES WHAT AIN'T SO?
WHISPERING GRASS, THE TREES DON'T HAVE TO KNOW,
NO, NO.
WHY TELL THEM ALL YOUR SECRETS?
WHO KISSED THERE LONG AGO?
WHISPERING GRASS, THE TREES DON'T NEED TO KNOW.
DON'T YOU TELL IT TO THE BREEZE
'CAUSE THEY WILL TELL THE BIRDS AND BEES
AND EV'RYONE WILL KNOW
BECAUSE YOU TOLD THE BLABBERING TREES.
YES, YOU TOLD THEM ONCE BEFORE,
IT'S NO SECRET ANY MORE.
WHY TELL THEM ALL THE OLD THINGS?
THEY'RE BURIED UNDER THE SNOW.
WHISPERING GRASS, DON'T TELL THE TREES
'CAUSE THE TREES DON'T NEED TO KNOW.
WHY TELL THEM ALL THE OLD THINGS?
THEY'RE BURIED UNDER THE SNOW.
WHISPERING GRASS, DON'T TELL THE TREES
'CAUSE THE TREES DON'T NEED TO KNOW.Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home
Chorus:
When you call my name
Its like a little prayer
Im down on my knees
I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour
I can feel your power
Just like a prayer
You know ill take you there
I hear your voice
Its like an angel sighing
I have no choice
I hear your voice
Feels like flying
I close my eyes
O God, i think im falling
Out of the sky
I close my eyes
Heaven help me!
When you call my name
Its like a little prayer
Im down on my knees
I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour
I can feel your power
Just like a prayer
You know ill take you there
Like a child
You whisper softly to me
Your in control
Just like a child
Now im dancing
Its like a dream
No end and no beginning
You're here with me
Its like a dream
Let the choir sing!
When you call my name
Its like a little prayer
Im down on my knees
I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour
I can feel your power
Just like a prayer
You know ill take you there
When you call my name
Its like a little prayer
Im down on my knees
I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour
I can feel your power
Just like a prayer
You know ill take you there
Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home
Just like a prayer
Your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me
Your are a mystery
Just like a dream
You are not what you seem
Just like a prayer
No choice, your voice can take me there
Just like a prayer
Ill take you there
Its like a dream to me
(repeat 3 more times)
Just like a Prayer
Your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me
You are a mystery
Just like a dream
You are not what you seem
Just like a pr
