Текст песни Unanswered Prayers

Just the other night a hometown football gameMy wife nd I ran
into my old high school flameAnd as I introduced them the past
came back to meAnd I couldn't help but think of the way things
used to be.She was the one that I'd wanted for all timesAnd each
night I'd spend prayin' that God would make her mineAnd if he'd
only grant me this wish I wished back thenI'd never ask for anything
again.Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayersRemember when
you're talkin' to the man upstairsThat just because he doesn't
answer doesn't mean he don't careSome of God's greatest gifts
are unanswered prayers.She wasn't quite the angel that I remembered
in my dreamsAnd I could tell that time had changed meInn her
eyes too it seemedWe tried to talk about the old daysThere wasn't
much we could recallI guess the Lord knows what he's doin' after
all.And as she walked away and I looked at my wifeAnd then and
there I thankedd the good LordFor the gifts in my life.
Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayersRemember when you're
talkin' to the man upstairsThat just because he may not answer
doesn't mean he don't careSome of God's greatest gifts are unanswered
prayers.Some of God's greatest gifts are all too often unanswered...Some
of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers
