Lyrics
[Intro hypnotic banjo loops] [Verse 1] It ain't the words you preach Or the hands you fold to pray The crowd may watch and speak But their eyes don't know the way [Chorus] There’s no prayer like desire It’s the flame that burns inside No holy man or choir Can see the fire you try to hide [Verse 2] A heart can tell a lie Even when it kneels to cry But the truth, it never dies It’s in the why, the reason why [Chorus] There’s no prayer like desire It’s the flame that burns inside No holy man or choir Can see the fire you try to hide [Bridge] Deep down we all know It's what we seek, what we fight for A whispered wish, a secret spark Guides the soul through the dark [Chorus] There’s no prayer like desire It’s the flame that burns inside No holy man or choir Can see the fire you try to hide [Outro] So let it burn, let it burn bright Only the heart knows what’s right
