Why did it have to end so soon? 
Why did you go away? 
Although I know it may never come true 
I hope to see you someday 

And I'll always remember 
Those times that we shared 
So if you're listening from up above 
This is my prayer 

You've brought so much joy to this world of mine 
Whenever I needed you came 
A friend like you is so hard to find 
Without you it won't be the same 

And though many will try 
No one can ever compare 
So if you're listening from up above 
This is my prayer 

May the mountains rise to meet you 
May the skies open wide 
Know that in my heart, my friend 
You will always be alive 

There are so many things that I want you to know 
So many words to say 
And when He finally calls me home 
I'll walk with you through those gates 

So please remember me 
Oh I promise I'll see you up there 
I hope you're listening from up above 
This is my prayer 

May the mountains rise to meet you 
May the skies open wide 
Know that in my heart my friend 
You will always be alive 

May the angels fly to greet you 
You can see it all from up there 
I know you're listening from up above 
'Cause this is, and will always be, my prayer 
My prayer 
My prayer
