Coment File lyrics

Just the other night 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
In 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
