I try 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

And 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

Mm

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, begging 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, baby

You just walked out the door

Yeah huh

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
