George Michael - Praying for Time(1998)

[00:13.47] Oh-oh, yeah
[00:18.22] Mmm
[00:20.13] To-do-do, oh-oh
[00:24.04]
[00:31.25] These are the days of the open hand
[00:35.53] They will not be the last
[00:39.09] Look around now
[00:41.19] These are the days of the beggars and the choosers
[00:46.49] This is the year of the hungry man
[00:50.47] Whose place is in the past
[00:53.77] Hand in hand with ignorance
[00:57.84] And legitimate excuses
[01:01.74] The rich declare themselves poor
[01:05.54] And most of us are not sure
[01:09.02] If we have too much but we'll take our chances
[01:13.07] 'Cause God's stopped keeping score
[01:16.48] I guess somewhere along the way
[01:20.20] He must have let us all out to play
[01:24.75] Turned His back and all God's children
[01:28.71] Crept out the back door
[01:31.77] And it's hard to love
[01:35.57] There's so much to hate
[01:39.17] Hanging on to hope
[01:42.77] When there is no hope to speak of
[01:46.53] And the wounded skies above
[01:50.20] Say it's much, too much, too late
[01:54.04]
[01:56.24] Well, maybe we should all be praying for time
[02:02.38]
[02:05.31] To-do-do, oh-oh
[02:08.83]
[02:12.02] Mmm, whoa-whoa, yeah
[02:16.13]
[02:31.43] These are the days of the empty hand
[02:35.34] Oh, you hold on to what you can
[02:39.54] And charity is a coat you wear twice a year
[02:46.42] This is the year of the guilty man
[02:50.66] Your television takes a stand
[02:53.99] And you find that what was over there is over here
[03:01.67] So you scream from behind your door
[03:05.40] Say what's mine is mine and not yours
[03:09.08] I may have too much but I'll take my chances
[03:13.15] 'Cause God's stopped keeping score
[03:16.58] And you cling to the things they sold you
[03:20.35] Did you cover your eyes when they told you
[03:24.22] That he can't come back 'cause he has no children
[03:29.33] To come back for?
[03:31.99] It's hard to love
[03:35.68] There's so much to hate
[03:39.24] Hanging on to hope
[03:42.96] When there is no hope to speak of
[03:46.75] And the wounded skies above
[03:51.25] Say it's much too late
[03:56.30] So maybe we should all be praying for time
[04:01.75]
[04:05.17] To-do-do
[04:10.28]
[04:13.92] Oh-oh, yeah
[04:14.87]
