  • Meet me afternoon 'neath the summer sun
    Right by the lake 'til the evening comes
    I run my fingers through your sun streaked hair
    Baby, that's the power of prayer

    Summer nights, summer's in the air
    I stack the tables with the chairs
    It's closing time then you're standing there
    Baby, that's the power of prayer

    It's a fixed game without any rules
    An empty table on a ship of fools
    I'm holding hearts, I'll play the pair
    Darling, it's just the power of prayer

    It's a fixed game without any rules
    An empty table on a ship of fools
    I'm holding hearts, I play the pair
    I'm going all in 'cause I don't care

    They say that love of comes and goes
    But darling what, what do they know
    I'm reaching for heaven, we'll make it there
    Darling, it's just the power of prayer
    Baby, it's just the power of prayer
    Darling, it's just the power of prayer

    Last call, the bouncer shuts the door
    This magic moment drifts across the floor
    As Ben E. King's voice fills the air
    Baby, that's the power of prayer Writer/s: Bruce Springsteen
