I know exactly where we stand

You're on your feet and I'm in quicksand

I can't help myself, I need a hand

Just when I think I'm dead

He turns up just in time for bed

I thank my lucky stars again



I sold my soul for rock and roll

I never ever get a kiss

But now I bought it back and gave it away

For another night like this



I found a way to use my head

I go over and over every word you said

Look how I can make something out of nothing



Say a prayer for the dying and the lost, ooh

When he said he loved me he was

Lying but he had his fingers crossed



It's ok he's not to blame

Let him have his toys

I know how to play that game

And I know that he's a beautiful boy

I'll take him any day

But I won't wait around and I won't pray

Cos in my heart of hearts I have been saved



Say a prayer for the dying and the lost, ooh

When he said he loved me he was

Lying but he had his fingers crossed
