Lyrics
"night and day"
(words & music by ron leary © 2020)
oh lord, i’ve been praying
every night, every day
i get down on my knees
praying just to see another day
it’s not like i’m lazy
it’s not like i’m a drunk
it’s not that i don’t give no shit
or i ain’t working hard enough
oh lord, i’ve been praying
every night, every day
i get down on my knees
praying just to see another day
i know i’ve got love
like i always craved
she gives me life
every day i awake
oh lord, i’ve been praying
every night, every day
i get down on my knees
praying just to see another day
they say this old world
it’s about to melt
and life as we know it
will be all wiped out
oh lord, i’ve been praying
every night, every day
i get down on my knees
praying just to see another day
