Oh-oh-oh, write me a reason to pray
Write me a reason you can't today
Write me a reason to come home, maybe
Or, write me a reason to stay (ay)

If only I could change, if only you weren't strange
I'm holding my breath when you come around
Sing to me softly, baby, I wanna feel at ease (oh-oo-oo-oo-aw yeah)
I think we got world peace, baby, when you hold onto me (yeah)

Oh-oh-oh, write me a reason to pray
Write me a reason you can't today
Write me a reason to come home, maybe
Or, write me a reason to stay (ay)

Write me a reason you can't today
