In our home all day I waited for the change
Something warm that I could say
But I admit it won't come
Somehow I don't care
Though I love the clothes she wears
and I love her body bare

And so I pray

I pray that it won't feel the same and
Don't think that I can't see it in your eyes
Darling, yeah, we both knew it from the start
Some minds are better kept apart

Here I pass the day in a most peculiar way
Watching ships out in the bay
And I swallow so hard
Am I too weak to fight
As the day becomes the night
and I don't want to be right

And so I pray

I pray that it won't feel the same and
Don't think that I can't see it in your eyes
Darling, yeah, we both knew it from the start
Some minds are better kept apart
I pray that it won't feel the same and
Don't think that I can't see it in your eyes
Darling, yeah, we both knew it from the start
