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