Hank Thompson - A Maiden's Prayer lyrics

A MAIDEN'S PRAYER

(Bob Wills)

« © '60 Hill & Range Songs »

When the evening falls twilight shadows find

There beneath the stars an Indian maiden divine

The moon is on high and seems to see her there

In her eyes there's a light shining ever so bright

As she whispers a silent prayer

Every word reveals an empty broken heart

Broken by fate that's keepin' them so far apart

Lonely there she kneels and tells the stars above

In her arms he belongs and her prayer is a song

Her undying song of love

Every word reveals an empty broken heart...
