lyrics

dear God,
can you hear me or is it way too late?
are you sleeping and is this thing too far gone to save?
i heard the words he told me
but i don't know if i understood
when he said he had to leave was it for now or for good?

so dear God, i'm reaching out
oh, dear God, i need you now

can you help me make sense of this?
'cause right now in my mind
i don't really recognize this thing that i call my life
when i'm talking to all my friends
they say don't you cry
it'll all come together, it'll get better in time
but if he's dead set on leaving, i can't make him wanna stay
the only thing that i can do is fold my hands and pray
fold my hands and pray, dear God

dear God
i think everybody thought we had it all
and even i couldn't have predicted this kind of fall
it's truly the kind of thing you've gotta see it to believe
but i'll be damned if it isn't standing right in front of me

so can you help me make sense of this?
'cause right now in my mind
i don't really recognize this thing that i call my life
when i'm talking to all my friends
they say don't you cry
it'll all come together, it'll get better in time
but if he's dead set on leaving, i can't make him wanna stay
the only thing that i can do is fold my hands and pray
fold my hands and pray, dear God

if he's dead set on leaving, i can't make him wanna stay
the only thing that i can do is fold my hands and pray
fold my hands and pray

can you help me make sense of this?
'cause right now in my mind
i don't really recognize this thing that i call my life
when i'm talking to all my friends
they say don't you cry
it'll all come together, it'll get better in time
but if he's dead set on leaving, i can't make him wanna stay
the only thing that i can do is fold my hands and pray
fold my hands and pray, dear God
