You're ruling the way that i move

and i breathe your air

you only can rescue me

this is my prayer

if you were mine

if you were mine

i wouldn't want to go to heaven

i cherish the day

i won't go astray

i won't be afraid

you won't catch me running

you're ruling the way that i move

you take my air

you show me how deep love can be

you're ruling the way that i move

and i breathe your air

you only can rescue me

this is my prayer

i cherish the day

i won't go astray

i won't be afraid

you won't catch me running

i cherish the day

i won't go astray

i won't be afraid

won't run away

you show me how deep love can be

you show me how deep love can be

this is my prayer

i cherish the day

i won't go astray

i won't be afraid

won't run away

won't shy

i cherish the day

i won't go astray

i cherish the day

i cherish the day

i cherish the day

i cherish the day

i cherish the day.
