Tell me you're listening
Can you hear me now?
Been calling out for days
For you to come around
Have I lost my devotion?
Feel it fading out
Lookin' for direction
'Cause I have my doubts
Yesterday was nothing but a memory
Say a prayer
To set me free
Sing mother mercy
Lead the way with your sound
Far away from this lonesome town
Please, mother mercy
Lift my feet off the ground
Far away from this lonesome town
Been told not to question
But I'm asking why
I can't sit and wonder
While I tow the line
Can't shake this emotion
No matter how hard I try
The wave of this ocean
Are the tears I cry
Yesterday was nothing but a memory
Say a prayer
To set me free
Sing mother mercy
Lead the way with your sound
Far away from this lonesome town
Please, mother mercy
Lift my feet off the ground
Far away from this lonesome town
You can see
So light my way
Teach me how
To spread my wings
I'll rise above
You hold my fate
Show me now
Take me away
Take me away
Sing mother mercy
Lead the way with your sound
Far away from this lonesome town
Oh please, mother mercy
Lift your feet off the ground
Far away, far away, far away (from lonesome town)
Ooh, yeah, take me away
(Far away from this lonesome town)
(Ooh-ooh) far away from this lonesome town
Ooh
Take me away
From this lonesome town
