Silent Prayer - Acoustic Pop Mix

Story Behind The Song

This songs starts with lyrics - "tonight you're so far away from me, and thoughts are swallowing my words, dreams are caught in fire and I can't sleep as it hurts.. ".. but then moves to a more positive... about existence and believing in something bigger than yourself - believing that everything happens to a beautiful universal order. A guardian Angel looking after you making everything alright. "can you hear my heart is laughing for you do you hear it's silent prayer? Every move you make I'll be following you and when you're hurting I'll be there". This song is about a relationship that has hardships but where the relationship despite the difficulties will move forward. It uses life and poetry in the song as a metaphor for the hard times in the relationship. Just as the world has it's problems, so too does our relationship -everything is connected and nothing can be separated. Thereby saying - that the difficulties we are having are almost in the order of the universe , but everything always works out in the end.

Lyrics

Silent Prayer - (NEW WORDS) word and music Julia Messenger

Tonight you're so far away from me
And thoughts are swallowing my words
Dreams are caught up in fire
And I can't sleep 'cause it hurts

Little girl sings a lullaby
Soft and sweetly in your ear
Oh my friend I have a secret
But only you're allowed to hear

Can you hear my heart is laughing for you?
Do you hear it's silent prayer?
Every move you make i'll be following you
Sending you love through the years

Somewhere out there there's an earthquake
So far 7,000 died
Perhaps we're all just reflections
And the movement - Mirrors our insides

In search for an answer -
I hold you close tonight
And in the core of your heart
She's the guardian Angel Of the Sea and Sky

Can you hear my heart is laughing for you?
Do you hear it's silent prayer
Every move you make i'll be following you
Sending you love through the years

Can you hear my heart is laughing for you?
Do you hear it's silent prayer
Every move you make i'll be following you
And when you're hurting i'll be there



The flow of the waterfall
Returns to the river that it's from
And taken are we children
On a journey unknown

And what once was important
Turns to Stardust in my arms
And the fear that was dissolves
As we remember - it's all One

Can you hear my heart is laughing for you?
Do you hear it's silent prayer?
Every move you make, i'll be following you
And when you're hurting I'll be there

Through the mask that hides the smile of a heart i know too well
Is a child that sings a song with many secrets to tell
And as the Moon and the Sun rest their heavy eyelids
Your planet starts to smile as this Angel plants a kiss

Can you hear my heart is laughing for you?
Do you hear it's silent prayer?
Every move you make i'll be following you
Sending you love through the years

Can you hear my heart is laughing for you?
Do you hear it's silent prayer?
Every move you make i'll be following you
...and when you're hurting i'll be there



(extra verse NOT IN THIS EDITED VERSION)
In the lonely darkness you seek a friend
And the sadness helps find the lightness within
Under the surface of a cloud lies a dream
And the teardrops that fall are from heaven it seems!
