《Where I Like It Best》歌词

[00:00:00] Where I Like It Best - Rickie Lee Jones

[00:00:24] I wanted to pray

[00:00:30] I wanted to let you go on your way

[00:00:35] I wanted to know why they laid there

[00:00:41] Dying in the streets

[00:00:44] Next to the restaurant

[00:00:46] Where people were eating

[00:00:51] Yes I wanted to pray

[00:01:08] How do you pray in a world like this

[00:01:15] You know I see the people on tv

[00:01:18] And they close their eyes and they bow their heads

[00:01:21] And they say

[00:01:24] Let us pray

[00:01:28] Feels so cold and meaningless

[00:01:32] And I wanted to pray and I said

[00:01:35] Tell me father

[00:01:39] Tell me mother

[00:01:43] Heavenly mother

[00:01:48] And they said

[00:01:56] When you pray pray alone by yourself

[00:02:01] In the secret room of your heart

[00:02:07] Don't go out into the church filled with people and pray

[00:02:13] God hears every secret that you say

[00:02:21] See all those people praying on tv and in the churches

[00:02:26] They like to make a big parade out of what they're doing

[00:02:32] They think God hears them louder if they say it

[00:02:37] Over and over and over and over and over again

[00:02:41] That say

[00:02:45] God

[00:02:52] But I say this

[00:02:56] You are the prayer

[00:03:00] Your eyes are the prayer

[00:03:04] Your hand on your cheek

[00:03:08] You are the prayer

[00:03:13] Those words you want to speak they are the prayer

[00:03:21] That dance you make when you're by yourself

[00:03:27] Just before your mother calls you on the phone

[00:03:31] You are the prayer

[00:03:35] I tell you what you gotta take it back from them

[00:03:38] Because the prayers belong to you

[00:03:43] All you gotta do is say hey hey

[00:03:48] I'm down here too I'm down here too I'm down here too

[00:03:57] And I hear you Jesus

[00:04:00] I hear you

[00:04:03] And I'm near you

[00:04:05] Wonder why there's so much suffering

[00:04:13] I want to say thank you thank you

[00:04:16] Thank you thank you thank you thank you

[00:04:19] I wanted to say thank you thank you

[00:04:21] I wanted to save

[00:04:24] I wanted to save

[00:04:33] You are where I like it best

[00:04:42] You are where I like it best

[00:04:49] You are where I like it best

[00:04:58] That's the Lords' prayer

[00:05:01] You are where

[00:05:04] I wanna be

[00:05:07] So

[00:05:10] Amen

[00:05:12] Just amen

[00:05:14] Amen all by myself amen just amen

[00:05:20] I'm so lonely just amen

[00:05:24] And I'm rising rising just amen

[00:05:31] You can look through my eyes

[00:05:35] Hears through my heart

[00:05:39] Look through my eyes
