  • You saw me standing by the wall
    Corner of a main street
    And the lights are flashing on your window sill
    All alone ain't much fun so you're looking for the thrill
    And you know just what it takes and where to go

    Don't save a prayer for me now
    Save it til the morning after
    No, don't say a prayer for me now
    Save it til the morning after

    Feel the breeze deep on the inside
    Look you down into your well (do-do-do-do-do)
    If you can, you'll see the world in all his fire (do-do-do-do-do)
    Take a chance like all dreamers
    Can't find another way (do-do-do-do-do)
    You don't have to dream it all
    Just live a day (Do-do-do-do-do)

    Don't say a prayer for me now
    Save it 'til the morning after
    No, don't say a prayer for me now
    Save it 'til the morning after
    Save it 'til the morning after
    Save it 'til the morning after

    Pretty looking road
    I try to hold the rising floods that fill my skin (do-do-do-do-do)
    Don't ask me why, I'll keep my promise
    Melt the ice (do-do-do-do-do)
    And you wanted to dance
    So I asked you to dance
    But fear is in your soul (do-do-do-do-do)
    Some people call it a one-night stand
    But we can call it paradise (do-do-do-do-do)

    Don't say a prayer for me now
    Save it 'til the morning after
    No, don't say a prayer for me now
    Save it 'til the morning after
    Save it 'til the morning after
    Save it 'til the morning after
    Save it 'til the morning after
    Save it 'til the morning after

    Do-do-do-do-do
    Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do

    Save a prayer 'til the morning after
    Save a prayer 'til the morning after
    Save a prayer 'til the morning after
    Save a prayer 'til the morning after
    Save a prayer 'til the morning after
    Save a prayer 'til the morning after Writer/s: Andy Taylor, John Taylor, Nick Rhodes, Roger Taylor, Simon Le Bon
