[Verse 1]

Heard it on the wire

You've been telling me lies

Heard in a sparrow's song

Every thing it said was wrong

Found it on your shirts

All the lipstick and the dirt

Your late nights on the town

Like red wine makes me down

[Pre-Chorus]

I don't need no explanation

I don't need the truth

Show some remorse for me

And for what you do

[Chorus]

Save it for your prayer, boy

There's no need to hurry

Save it for your prayer, boy

I've learned not to worry, yeah

Save it for your prayer

I, I'm not gonna care no

I'm not gonna be there for you

[Verse 2]

Read it in a letter

That you would hurt me so

Never thought

I'd leave you, but

Now I guess

I don't know, oh

I thought you'd love me

And I, I thought we'd last

But, now I realise

It was all in the past

[Chorus]

Save it for your prayer, boy

There's no need to hurry

Save it for your prayer, boy

'Cause I, I've learned not to worry, no

Save it for your prayer

I'm not gonna care, no

I'm not gonna be there, yeah, for you

For you

Save it for your prayer
