Regina Spektor - One Man's Prayer lyrics

I just want some girl to love me back
Tell me I'm her only and
Take away the lonely
This deep love in my heart can't go to waste

'Cause if I won't get to meet God and
I won't get to be a god
Then at least, God
Let me get loved back by a girl

I just want some girl to talk to me
And tell me that I'm different or
Say that I'm the same
I don't care what she thinks
Just think of me

'Cause if I won't get to meet God and
I won't get to be a god
Then at least, God
Let me get talked to by a girl

This is what I want, this is what I need
If I ask real nice, will you give her to me?
If I just say, "Please
This is what I need"
But if I can't have that, well
Then at least

I just want some girl to look my way
And see that I am better than the others
That I matter
In her life, I wanna be a friend

'Cause if I won't get to meet God and
I won't get to be a god
Then at least, God
Let me get noticed by a girl

In this great world, we just plan to live
But you can't plan love, love's from above
And if I do have a choice
I'll just put one foot in front of the other
I'll say one word after another in my voice
If I have a choice

I just want some girl beneath my feet
To tell me I'm her king and
Then beg me for a ring
And I want her to be afraid of me
And think that I might leave her and
That I will not believe her
When she says that she loves and cares for me

'Cause if I won't get to meet God and
I won't get to be a god
Then at least, God
Let me get worshiped by a girl

In this great world, we just plan to live
But you can't plan love, love's from above
This is what I want, this is what I need
If I ask real nice, will you give her to me?
If I just say, "Please
This is what I need"
But if I can't have that, well
Then at least
This is what I want (This is what I want)
This is what I say (This is what I say)
And this is what I pray
