1
I tried my best to keep you here
2
But it's hard to hold a shadow
3
You said goodbye but I couldn't hear
4
Too busy praying for a miracle
5
And you left me on my knees
6
You just walked out the door
7
You didn't even have the decency to intervene while I was begging God for
8
You to love me
9
I prayed about us every night
10
Boy I know you had to hear me
11
You could've stopped me then and told the truth
12
But instead you pulled the pillow over your head
13
And you left me on my knees
14
You just walked out the door
15
You didn't even have the decency to intervene while I was begging God for
16
You to love me
17
You should've told me it was useless, that I was praying empty prayers
18
But you hopped in your car, pulled out your keys
19
While you were leaving, I was begging God for you to love me
20
And I know that He had something better to do
21
Than to sit and listen to a broken-hearted fool
22
Could've been saving the world from a tragedy, but instead He was listening
23
To me
24
I was asking, begging for a sign to bring comfort to this lonely heart of
25
Mine
26
But apparently you're not what I need
27
I guess you walking out was Him answering
28
You left me on my knees
29
You just walked out the door
30
You didn't even have the decency to intervene while I was begging God for
31
You to love me
32
I tried my best to keep you here
33
But it's hard to hold a shadow
