Lyrics for The Prayer
Lord, give me grace and dancing feet And the power to impress Lord, give me grace and dancing feet Let me outshine them all Is it so wrong to crave recognition? Second best runner up Is it so wrong to want rewarding? To want more than is given to you? Than is given to you Tonight make me unstoppable And I will charm I will slice I will dazzle them with my wit Tonight make me unstoppable And I will charm I will slice I will dazzle I will outshine them all Standing on the packed dance floor Our bodies throb in time Silent on the weekdays Tonight I claim what's mine Is it so wrong to crave recognition? Second best runner up Is it so wrong to want rewarding? To want more than is given to you? Than is given to you Tonight make me unstoppable And I will charm I will slice I will dazzle them with my wit Tonight make me unstoppable And I will charm I will slice I will dazzle I will outshine them all
