Two Hands of a Prayer

first time that i saw her she had white doves in her eyes

she spoke to me but i could not reply
she was a stranger i had known for years
she brought to me so many smiles and tears
smiles and tears

the two hands of a prayer
together like the two hands of a prayer

time it slowly drifts into the past
and finds a home where all echoes rest
she softly kissed my mind
and whispered what will we do with time

the two hands of a prayer
together like the two hands of a prayer

am i the man i choose to be
or just the man i used to be
am i the man i want to be
this question it keeps haunting me

the two hands of a prayer
together like the two hands of a prayer
