I tried my best to keep you here

But it's hard to hold a shadow

You said goodbye but I couldn't hear

Too busy praying for a miracle



You left me on my knees

You just walked out the door

You didn't even have the decency to intervene

While I was begging God for you to love me



I prayed about us every night, mhmm…

Boy I know you had to hear me

You could have stopped me then and told the truth

But instead, you put a pillow over your head



Oh, and you left me on my knees

You just walked out the door, babe

You didn't even have the decency to intervene

While I was begging God for you to love me



You should have told me it was useless



That I was praying empty prayers, yeah

But you hopped in your car, pulled out your keys

While you were leaving, I was begging God for you to love me



And I know that He has something better to do

Than to sit and listen to a broken hearted fool

Could have been saving the world from a tragedy

But instead He was listening to me



I was asking, beggin' for a sign

To bring comfort to this lonely heart of mine

But apparently you're not what I need

I guess you walking out was Him answering



You left me on my knees

You just walked out the door

You didn't even have the decency to intervene

While I was begging God for you to love me



I try my best to keep you here

But it's hard to hold a shadow...
