Rod Stewart - Blind Prayer Lyrics
(rod stewart)I was born and raised the only son of a lawyerTill I was approximately the age of four or perhaps fiveI lost both my mother and my fatherKilled in a fire way up on the fourteenth floorStruck down by the time I was ten by an illnessWhich robbed me of the sight of the morning sunAnd that aint allA homeless child for the next five yearsWith my dog clown by my side and my only friendYeah, yeah, yeah.I fought my way through schoolSound and touch the thing on which I could dependAnd you know what the, the, the kidsDown my street werent too playfulAnd right then it seemed like the whole world picked on meAnd ah yeahI worked my fingers to the boneStretchin hide for a boot man in jersey townBut then, but then I lost the last thing I hadWhen fate reared its ugly head and took my dog clownI wandered way up north found a girl that loved like a womanSixteen years old and felt like a womanBut, but, but, but, but what Im trying to say isGod please dont take her away from meI lost everything that I ever hadYou kicked my name into the dirtTread my name into the dirt yeahI lost everything that I ever hadYou kicked my name into the dirtWhat could I doI never knew how much love could hurt meBut it never ever come my way beforeNo, no, no, no, noI never knew how much love could hurt meGood God it aint never come my way beforeOh but, but you know what Im trying to sayReally what Im trying to say isGod please dont take her away from meAh turn it downI lost everything that I ever hadYou kicked my name into the dirtYou got a lotta lotta lost everythingThat I ever had ever had
