There's a ship out on the ocean at the mercy of the sea
It's been tossed about lost and broken wandering aimlessly
And god, somehow you know that ship is me
Because there's a lighthouse in a harbor shining faithfully
Pouring it's light out across the water for this sinking soul to see
That someone out there still believes in me
Chorus:
On a prayer in a song
I hear your voice and it keeps me hanging on
Raining down agianst the wind
I'm reaching out until we reach the circle's end
When you come back to me agian
There's a moment that we all come to
In our time and our own place
Where all that we've done we can undo
If our heart's in the right place
Repeat chorus
Again and again I see
My yesterdays in front of me
Unfolding like a mystery
You're changing all that is and used to be
Repeat chorus
