While I'm far away from you, my baby
 
 I know it's hard for you, my baby
 
 Because it's hard for me, my baby
 
 And the darkest hour is just before dawn
 
  
  Each night before you go to bed, my baby
 
 Whisper a little prayer for me, my baby, yeah
 
 And tell all the stars above
 
 This is dedicated to the one I love
  
 
 Life can never be exactly like we want it to be
 
 I could be satisfied knowing you love me
 
 And there's one thing I want you to do, especially for me
 
 And it's something that everybody needs
  
 
 While I'm far away from you, my baby
 
 Whisper a little prayer for me, my baby, yeah
 
 Because it's hard for me, my baby
 
 And the darkest hour is just before dawn
  
 
 If there's one thing I want you to do, especially for me
 
 Then it's something that everybody needs
  
 
 Each night before you go to bed, my baby
 
 Whisper a little prayer for me, my baby, yeah
 
 And tell all the stars above
 
 This is dedicated to the one I love
  
 
 This is dedicated (to the one I love)
 
 This is dedicated to the one I love
 
 This is dedicated (to the one I love)
 
 This is dedicated, this is dedicated
