On A Wing And A Prayer

Somewhere in the dark of night,
alone there by the firelight,
somewhere out there I saw your face.

You were staring at me plain as day.
I swear I haven't felt this way since
you left me here without a trace,
on a wing and a prayer.

Still I'm searching for you every night,
but it never comes out right.
I keep hoping you'll be there
to save me from this emptiness.
Drag me from my loneliness.
I keep on thinking you'll be there
on a wing and a prayer.

Now I know that you're not coming home.
But somehow I keep holding on
a wing and a prayer.

Chorus:
I keep holding on to you
though I know that you're long gone.
I don't know why I can't see we're though.
Heaven knows I'm holding on.

(guitar solo, chorus)

Oh, on a wing and a prayer.
Oh, on a wing and a prayer.
Oh, on a wing and a prayer.
I keep holding on a wing and a prayer.
