Tho' I posted the lyrics to this song some time ago...this RE/RECORDED version differs slightly from that original recording...
A MAIDEN'S PRAYER Recorded by: Bob Wills w/Tommy Duncan vocal Words and music: Bob Wills
Twilight falls, ev'ning shadows find There 'neath the stars, a maiden so fair, divine The moon on high seemed to see her there In her eyes was a light, shinin' ever so bright She whispered a silent prayer.
Ev'ry word revealed an empty broken heart Broken by fate that holds them so far apart Lonely there, she kneels and tells the stars above In her arms he belongs, in her prayer is a song Her unending song of love.
