My Prayer:The Platters.
#6 USA. #1 R&B. And #5 in UK in 1956.
INTRO:
[Em] [Am] [B7] [Em]
When the twilight is gone, and no songbirds are singing.
[Em] [Am] [B7] [Em]
When the twilight is gone, you come into my heart..
[Am] [C7] [B7] [E]
and here in my heart, you will stay..while I pray..
#1.
[E]
My prayer, is to linger with you.
[Am] [E] [B7]
At the end of the day, in a dream that's di..vine.
[E] [C#dim]
My prayer is a rapture in bloom,
[Am] [E]
With the world far away, and your lips close to mine.
CHORUS:
[Am] [Em]
Tonight, while our hearts are aglow..
[Am] [C#dim] [B7]
oh, tell me the words, that I'm longing to know..
#2.
[E] [C#dim]
My prayer and the answer you give,
[Am] [E]
may they still be the same, for as long as we live,
[A] [B7] [E] [Am] [E]
that you'll always be there..at the end of my..prayer.
