Justin Bieber新单Pray

       歌曲创作背景：贾斯汀比伯说他创作新歌《祈祷》（Pray）时，受到了MJ的歌曲《镜中人》（Man in the Mirror）的启发。Bieber说，“我在写这首歌时，想到了迈克尔的《镜中人》。有很多关于爱情的歌曲，我想创作这个主题以外的歌曲是很棒的。还有很多其他重要的事情，我想能够激励大家。”

英文歌词：

 

I just can't sleep tonight
Knowing the things aIn't right
It's in the papers, It's on the TV
It's everywhere that I go
Children are crying
Soldiers are dying¹
Some people don't have a home
But I know there's sunshine behind that rain
I know there's good times behind that the pain,
hey，Can you tell me how I can make a change?
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I lose my appetite
No way could start tonight
Am I a sinner?
Cause of my dinner still laying on my plate
Oohh I got a vision², to make a dIfference
And I start it today
Cause I know there's sunshine behind that rain
I know there's good tImes behind that the pain
Can you tell me how I can make a change?
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes and I could see a better day
I close my eyes and pray for the broken-hearted
I pray for the life not started
I pray for all amongst not breathing
I pray for all the souls in needing,
I Pray, can you give me one a day
I just can't sleep tonight
Can someone tell me how to make a change
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes and I could see a better day
I close my eyes and, I pray…
I pray
I pray
I close my eyes and pray…
