My Lover's Prayer

(专辑： Complete & Unbelievable: The Otis Redding Dictionary Of Soul - 1966)

This is my lover's prayer
I hope it'll reach out to you, my love
This is my lover's prayer
And I hope you can understand it, my love

My life is such a weary thing
But it might be old pressure bringing rain
You keep me wanting, waiting and wishing
When I know deep down that I'm not to blame

What you gonna do tonight
When you need some loving arms to hold you tight?
Tell me, what you gonna do tonight
When you need my heavy voice to tell you goodnight?

Honey but you can't let that be no problem
You've got to come home and help me solve 'em
Yeah, I won't be missing you
And honey, my lover's prayer would be all over, oh my

What can the matter be, now?
It can't be too serious we can't talk it over
Living in this misery, darling
You can't make my life all over

Honey, but don't you let that be no problem
Just come on home and help me solve 'em
Then I won't be missing you, I would keep kissing you
And my lover's prayer would be all over

It got to be all over
Honey, all over
Don't keep my life going 'round so many circles

This is my lover's prayer
Come on y'all
This is my lovers prayer
I'm singing out to you
And I hope it reaches out to you
This is my lover's prayer
I hope it gets to you
