My Love Lyrics
[Verse 1: Shane]
An empty street, an empty house
A hole inside my heart
I'm all alone, the rooms are getting smaller
I wonder how, I wonder why
I wonder where they are
The days we had, the songs we sang together
Oh yeah
[Pre-Chorus: All, Shane]
And oh, my love
I'm holding on forever
Reaching for the love that seems so far
[Chorus: All]
So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again, my love
Overseas from coast to coast
To find a place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again, my love
[Verse 2: Brian]
I try to read, I go to work
I'm laughing with my friends
But I can't stop, to keep myself from thinking, oh no
I wonder how, I wonder why
I wonder where they are
The days we had the songs, we sang together
Oh yeah
An empty street, an empty house
A hole inside my heart
I'm all alone, the rooms are getting smaller
I wonder how, I wonder why
I wonder where they are
The days we had, the songs we sang together
Oh yeah
[Pre-Chorus: All, Shane]
And oh, my love
I'm holding on forever
Reaching for the love that seems so far
[Chorus: All]
So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again, my love
Overseas from coast to coast
To find a place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again, my love
[Verse 2: Brian]
I try to read, I go to work
I'm laughing with my friends
But I can't stop, to keep myself from thinking, oh no
I wonder how, I wonder why
I wonder where they are
The days we had the songs, we sang together
Oh yeah
[Pre-Chorus: All, Shane]
And oh, my love
I'm holding on forever
Reaching for the love that seems so far
[Chorus: All]
So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again, my love
Overseas from coast to coast
To find a place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again
[Bridge: Mark]
To hold you in my arms
To promise you my love
To tell you from the heart
You're all I'm thinking of
I'm reaching for the love that seems so far
[Chorus: All, Mark, Shane]
(So) So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again, my love
Overseas from coast to coast (Overseas)
To find a place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again (My love)
And oh, my love
I'm holding on forever
Reaching for the love that seems so far
[Chorus: All]
So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again, my love
Overseas from coast to coast
To find a place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again
[Bridge: Mark]
To hold you in my arms
To promise you my love
To tell you from the heart
You're all I'm thinking of
I'm reaching for the love that seems so far
[Chorus: All, Mark, Shane]
(So) So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again, my love
Overseas from coast to coast (Overseas)
To find a place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again (My love)
[Outro: All, Shane, Brian]
So I say a little prayer
My sweet love
Dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again (Oh, my love)
Overseas from coast to coast
To find a place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again, my love
So I say a little prayer
My sweet love
Dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again (Oh, my love)
Overseas from coast to coast
To find a place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again, my love
