Song: Night Prayer

Artist: Iridio

Style: Pop

This lonely road I am walking on
Where did it begin? Where will it end?
And when the dark night comes
Who will save my soul?
On my lonely road will I walk alone?

I never feared darkness coming near
Now I don’t know why I behold² the sky
To find the brightest star
With its brilliant light
So I pray to thee, will you shine on me?

Mother Moonlight, fill my scared eyes
Light up my way with your brightest ray
Shining on everything through the clouds
Take my hands till the morning will come.

This dusty³ road where I walk alone
With my restless⁴ heart and my tired bones
It’s going on and on
But I know for sure
That it’s leading me to the world of dreams

This lonely road  You are not alone
I am walking on   When you leave your home
Where did it begin?   And you're far away
Where will it end?   On a dusty way
And when the dark night comes   I will always care
Who will save my soul?   And I will be there
On my lonely road    Every time you call my name
will I walk alone?

I never feared darkness coming near
Now I don’t know why I behold the sky
To find the brightest star
With its brilliant light
So I pray to thee, will you shine on me?
