Goodnight Father, Just Stay a Little -- 小小的晚禱

克非和敏哲為我量身打造的晚禱

詞曲都好棒，不過我沒有他們寫的那麼好，我很認真地唱，唱得鼻子都紅了

希望你們聽了以後，今天的難處都能得到緩解

Sophisti-pop / Blue-eyed soul

I poured myself a drink
sat there quietly
doing nothing for a while

until I realized
what I really needed
wasn't another sip

A prayer,
maybe

Father,

I haven't been alright today

Nothing terrible happened
nothing I couldn't explain
I just carried too much
and smiled anyway

I said I was fine
more times than I should
and nobody noticed

which was good

I think

Father,

There are people tonight
who need You more than I do

Someone in a hospital
someone waiting for a call
someone staring at the ceiling
with nobody there at all

Someone who's afraid
to close their eyes

Someone who doesn't know
how they're going to make it
through the night

I don't know their names
You probably do

So could You stay with them
for a while?

And maybe
when You're done

come sit with me too

Father,

If tomorrow
can only be
a little better

even just a little from You

I'd really need that

Not a miracle
not the whole world made right

Just enough light
to know it's morning

and enough strength
to get there

And Father,

I'm sorry

I only seem to talk this much
when I'm tired

or lonely

or when the drink
doesn't do
what I thought it would

I know
that's probably not
how prayer is supposed to work

but I'm here

and You're here

I hope that's enough

Father,

If tomorrow
can only be
a little better

even just a little from You

I'd really need that

And if somebody else
needs that little better
more than I do tonight

then...

maybe...

give them mine first

I'll be alright

or...

I'll try

Amen
