St. Claires Retreat
[Verse 1]
I said a prayer for good St. Claire
And then I said one more for you
'Cause when that evenin' sun came down, I felt blue
I never meant to do you right
Not like you've never done for me
The good old prayer was quick to offer her a treat

[Verse 2]
They say dreams are just feelings in a bottle
And I get to thinkin' I could use a few
And I get to thinkin' 'bout you
I should climb up on a mountain on my own two feet
'Cause the doors are always open
And the rates are always cheap

[Chorus]
I'll leave a candle in the window
But I may as well like to
Say a prayer for good St. Claire
And one for you
[Verse 3]
Time has its way of making its escape
Years go by, I wonder where did all of ours go
If I could do things all over again
I'd have spent those nights with you
Left sweet Claire like a fool to someone new

[Verse 4]
They say touch is what we need to keep us livin'
But I've made a livin' out of lyin' to you
Lord, what did I do?
I started out with good intentions
With the sunshine comes the rain
Who knew the slightest provocation
Could wash good intentions all away?

[Chorus]
I'll leave a candle in the window
But I may as well like to
Say a prayer for good St. Claire
And one for you

[Outro]
Say a prayer for good St. Claire
And one for you
