[Verse 1]
What a beautiful night for a wedding
Between your heart and your soul
It's a beautiful time for new beginnings
Moving on, breaking free and letting go
Have you ever been caught in a nightmare?
Have you ever been trapped in a dream?

[Chorus]
Take a deep breath, close your eyes
Open your heart and let love inside
'Cause the gift of tears will calm your fears
And when all hope is dead and gone
Pray on
Oh, pray on

[Verse 2]
What a beautiful day to remember
Who you were when you were young and naive
Shooting for the moon
Strumming out of tune
Just a crazy kid born to believe
Have your demons become your guardian angels?
Does it feel like you've lost touch with the light?

[Chorus]
Oh, so take a deep breath, close your eyes
Open your heart and let the light inside
'Cause the gift of tears will calm your fears
And not all hope is dead and gone
Pray on
Oh, pray on
[Bridge]
Oh, pray it up, pray it down
Get down on your knees, brother
And kiss the ground
We could be gone tomorrow
This life ain't free
So why not live in harmony?

[Verse 3]
What a beautiful night for forgiveness
What a beautiful night for a song
Oh, I wanna hear the kick drum pound
Like a soul that's lost and found
When the spirit's right nothing can go wrong

[Chorus]
So take a deep breath, close your eyes
Open your heart and let the light inside
'Cause the gift of tears will calm your fears
And when all hope is dead and gone
Pray on
Oh, pray on
Ooh, pray on

[Outro]
'Cause the gift of tears will calm your fears
And when all hope is dead and gone
Pray on
