(Soft, ambient piano chords) (Gentle, melancholic cello melody) (Deep breath) [Verse 1] The room goes dark, the city falls asleep But I’m still awake with a promise I keep I pull the blankets close against the chill The clock is ticking loud, the house is still I close my eyes and picture where you are So close inside my mind, but oh so far [Pre-Chorus] (Strings build softly) My hands come together in the quiet space Whispering your name, searching for some grace It’s a heavy habit born of missing you It’s the only thing that pulls me through [Chorus] And I am praying every single night for you Begging the sky to keep you safe and true When the weight of the world is too much to bear I hope you feel the comfort of my unspoken prayer Yeah, I'm bending my knees in the dark of the room Sending all my light out into the gloom Just to cover you... I'm praying every night for you [Verse 2] (Acoustic guitar joins the piano) I ask for peace to rest upon your chest To quiet down the doubts that make you second-guess I ask the shadows not to block your view And that the morning brings a strength that feels brand new I don't care if heaven thinks I ask too much I just want your broken pieces healed by a gentle touch [Pre-Chorus] My hands come together in the quiet space Whispering your name, searching for some grace It’s a heavy habit born of missing you It’s the only thing that pulls me through [Chorus] And I am praying every single night for you Begging the sky to keep you safe and true When the weight of the world is too much to bear I hope you feel the comfort of my unspoken prayer Yeah, I'm bending my knees in the dark of the room Sending all my light out into the gloom Just to cover you... [Bridge] (Music swells, emotional peak) Even if you never know it's me Holding up your spirit silently Even if we walk separate roads ahead I will mean every single word I said To the stars, to the moon, to the empty air— You are always, always my midnight prayer! [Guitar Solo] (Crying electric guitar or powerful violin solo, building intense emotion) [Chorus] (Full emotional release, high energy, soaring vocals) Yeah, I am praying every single night for you! Begging the sky to keep you safe and true! When the weight of the world is too much to bear I hope you feel the comfort of my unspoken prayer Yeah, I'm bending my knees in the dark of the room Sending all my light out into the gloom Just to cover you... [Outro] (Music strips back down to just soft piano) Every night... When the silence falls. I will answer when your spirit calls. I’m still praying for you. (Whispered) Always for you. (Piano chord fades out) [End]
