My Prayer

Verse 1
When I held you it felt so right
and I want to know how things went wrong
I held back the words I wanted to say
Making sure I meant every word i was about to say
-
Now I lay here in my own silence
lifing all my concerns and hopes to you
You've shown me the true gift of love
now rain down yours from above

Verse 2
I walked you through my apartment doors
said my goodbyes and kissed your lips
I had no idea what was about to come
and I don't know where all this came from
-
will you please stand here with me
please remove this burden from me
tell me everything will be alright
and tell me not to give up this fight

Verse 3
I heard your voice, and what you had to say
I heard all the tears stream down your face
shocked by the words I shed one of my own
and I shed one more as I hung up the phone
-
Don't leave me here alone and sore
Please tell me what all of this is for
I will place every piece of trust in you
now I just wait to see what you will do

Outro
I don't know if this is love
I don't know if this is real
All know i smile when I am with her
and I don't when i am not

*Chorus*
Lord hold my heart in your hands
please wipe these tears from my eyes
Hold me now so I can walk
Give me the words so I can talk
