SAY A PRAYER FOR ME TONIGHT
From "Gigi" (1958)
(Lyrics : Alan Jay Lerner / Music : Frederick Loewe)


Say a prayer for me tonight
I'll need every prayer that you can spare
To get me by

Say a prayer and while you're praying
Keep on saying
She's much too young to die

On to your Waterloo, whispers my heart
Pray I'll be Wellington, not Bonaparte

Oh, say a prayer for me this evening
Bow your head and please
Stay on your knees tonight
