One Man's Prayer
I just want some girl to love me back
Tell me I'm her only
And take away the lonely
This deep love in my heart can't go to waste
'Cause if I won't get to meet God
And I won't get to be a god
Then at least God, let me get looked at by a girl
I just want some girl to talk to me
And tell me that I'm different
Or say that I'm the same
I don't care what she thinks
Just think of me
'Cause if I won't get to meet God
And I won't get to be a god
Then at least God, let me get talked to by a girl
This is what I want
This is what I need
If I ask real nice
Will you give her to me?
If I just say, "Please"
"This is what I need"
But if I can't have that
Well, then at least
I just want some girl to look my way
And see that I am better than the others, that I matter
In her life, I wanna be a friend
'Cause if I won't get to meet God
And I won't get to be a god
Then at least God, let me get noticed by a girl
In this big world
We just learn to live
But you can't find love
Loves from above
But if I do have the choice to just put
One foot in front of the other
I'll sing, one word after another with my voice
If I have a choice
I just want some girl beneath my feet
To tell me I'm her king
And then beg me for a ring
And I want her to be afraid of me
And think that I might leave her
And that I will not believe her
When she says that she loves and cares for me
'Cause if I won't get to meet God
And I won't get to be a god
Then at least God, let me get worshiped by a girl
In this great world
We just learn to live
But you can't find love
Not from above
This is what I want
This is what I need
If I ask real nice
Will you give her to me?
If I just say, "Please"
"This is what I need"
But if I can't have that
Okay, then at least
This is what I want (this is what I want)
This is what I say (this is what I say)
And this is what I pray
Tell me I'm her only
And take away the lonely
This deep love in my heart can't go to waste
'Cause if I won't get to meet God
And I won't get to be a god
Then at least God, let me get looked at by a girl
I just want some girl to talk to me
And tell me that I'm different
Or say that I'm the same
I don't care what she thinks
Just think of me
'Cause if I won't get to meet God
And I won't get to be a god
Then at least God, let me get talked to by a girl
This is what I want
This is what I need
If I ask real nice
Will you give her to me?
If I just say, "Please"
"This is what I need"
But if I can't have that
Well, then at least
I just want some girl to look my way
And see that I am better than the others, that I matter
In her life, I wanna be a friend
'Cause if I won't get to meet God
And I won't get to be a god
Then at least God, let me get noticed by a girl
In this big world
We just learn to live
But you can't find love
Loves from above
But if I do have the choice to just put
One foot in front of the other
I'll sing, one word after another with my voice
If I have a choice
I just want some girl beneath my feet
To tell me I'm her king
And then beg me for a ring
And I want her to be afraid of me

This is what I need

If I just say, "Please"
"This is what I need"
But if I can't have that
Okay, then at least
This is what I want (this is what I want)
This is what I say (this is what I say)
And this is what I pray
