I know we'll be alright

I Know We'll Be Alright Tonight I got down on my knees And prayed some to The Man, Prayers for maybe the wrong things But I knew He'd understand. I've been alone in life now, for really a very long time, I took my independence well, at least in my mind. But even the strong get lonely, without someone to hold, See, I'd like to have someone special with me when I grow old. So I asked Him to find me a man gentle and kind, I wasn't in a hurry so He could take His time. And then one day you came along with a voice to warm my soul, And piece by piece I felt my heart once again becoming whole. With every conversation shared late into the night, I fell deeper into your abyss but I knew I'd be alright For even if it turned out that one day our paths would end, That even if I lost my heart I knew I'd gain a friend. Please forgive me as I pray tonight that you turn out to be the one, For God had His hand in this before the first smile had begun. Now as my prayers are done and I crawl into my bed tonight, I smile as I think of you for I know we'll be alright. I know that as the feeling grows you're already special to me, And I hold on to the hope you feel the same way about me.
