Dedicated To The One I Love 
 The Mamas & The Papas 
  
 While I'm far away from you my baby 
 I know it's hard for you my baby 
 Because it's hard for me my baby 
 And the darkest hour is just before dawn 
  
 Each night before you go to bed my baby 
 Whisper a little prayer for me my baby 
 And tell all the stars above 
 This is dedicated to the one I love 
 (love can never be exactly like we want it to be) 
  
 I could be satisfied knowing you love me 
 (and there's one thing I want you to do 
 especially for me) 
 And it's something that everybody needs 
  
 While I'm far away from you my baby 
 Whisper a little prayer for me my baby 
 Because it's hard for me my baby 
 And the darkest hour is just before dawn 
  
 If there's one thing I want you to do especially for me 
 Then it's something that everybody needs
