Garth Brooks - Unanswered prayers

Tekst :

Just the other night at a hometown football game
My wife and I ran into my old high school flame
And as I introduced them the past came back to me
And I couldn t help but think of the way things used to be

She was the one that I d wanted for all times
And each night I d spend prayin that God would make her mine
And if he d only grant me this wish I wished back then
I d never ask for anything again

Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
Remember when you re talkin to the man upstairs
That just because he doesn t answer doesn t mean he don t care
Some of God s greatest gifts are unanswered prayers

She wasn t quite the angel that I remembered in my dreams
And I could tell that time had changed me
Inn her eyes too it seemed
We tried to talk about the old days
There wasn t much we could recall
I guess the Lord knows what he s doin after all

And as she walked away and I looked at my wife
And then and there I thanked the good Lord
For the gifts in my life

Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
Remember when you re talkin to the man upstairs
That just because he may not answer doesn t mean he don t care
Some of God s greatest gifts are unanswered

Some of God s greatest gifts are all too often unanswered...
Some of God s greatest gifts are unanswered prayers

    Someone special

    I wake up to the sound of rain upon my sill
    Pick up the pieces of my yesterday old thrill
    Can I deliver this used up shiver
    To how I pronounce my life
    And leave it up to faith to go by its own will

    Something

    I m walking down the highway, no destiny
    I feel kind of lonely, as a women can be
    Searchin for a new way, new way of life
    Far away the distance, no sacrifise
    For so many times, I was feelin blue
    Didn t know a thing, didn t know what to do

    The shape of things 2 come

    You should hear the warning if you read the signs
    play with your own life but don t play with mine
    you re living your way, i m living mine
    may be tomorrow we will collide
    if you knew the action, you see us so blind...

    Much too young

    This ol highway s getting longer
    Seems there ain t no end in sight
    To sleep would be best, but I just can t afford to rest

    Live or die

    Live or die, are the choices I got
    But I rfuse to go anywhere soon
    Life is to short to keep explaining myself
    My situation means nothing to you

    Back to realityonce again
    I clear my thoughts and think about how much time I...
