(Intro – spoken)
Yeah…
I had you in my prayers,
Thought that meant forever.
Guess sometimes God answers different.
(Verse 1)
I thought you were the one, yeah I stamped it in stone,
Walk with me through this earth, flesh and bone.
I was talking to God like, “Yeah, this the plan,”
Now I’m talking to God like, “Help me understand.”
I gave you my heart, no insurance, no guard,
Loved you like faith when it’s quiet and hard.
Now I’m standing alone, but I see it clear,
Some angels just walk with you part of the year.
(Pre-Chorus)
I was praying for forever, God gave me a season,
Still don’t like the ending, but I trust the reason.
(Chorus)
Thank God for you, even though it hurt,
Even though the love didn’t make it to church.
I cried in the dark, learned how to kneel,
Learned what’s fake, learned what’s real.
Thought you were my rib, thought you were my truth,
But God had a plan bigger than me and you.
(Verse 2)
We was dancing in the light, now it’s ashes and dust,
Funny how love and pain both come from trust.
I tried to hold on, God said, “Let it go,”
Sometimes losing someone’s how your spirit grows.
You were a mirror, showed me my flaws,
Showed me my strength, showed me my God.
If love is a lesson, then I passed that class,
Still failing some nights when I think ‘bout the past.
(Pre-Chorus)
I ain’t mad at you, I’m mad at the dream,
Mad at the version of us I had in my dreams.
(Chorus)
Thank God for you, even though it hurt,
Even though the love didn’t make it to church.
I cried in the dark, learned how to kneel,
Learned what’s fake, learned what’s real.
Thought you were my rib, thought you were my truth,
But God had a plan bigger than me and you.
(Bridge – spoken, romantic)
Maybe you weren’t meant to stay…
Maybe you were meant to wake me up.
Some people come as blessings,
Some come as prayers you don’t get to keep.
I loved you heavy,
But God loves me more.
(Chorus – stripped, emotional)
Thank God for you, I mean that for real,
For the love I felt, for the wounds that healed.
I loved so deep, I broke so clean,
Still grateful for everything in between.
(Outro)
I walk with God now, scars on my chest,
Some loves don’t last—but they still blessed.
