Yet another song idea.
----
Though I've forgotten how to pray
It was your footnote
Where I learned I could not stay
By the side of a God
Who could take you away
By the side of a God
Who could say the words they say
I'll keep praying for you
Though I've forgotten how to pray
I'll pray
I'll keep thanking you
After every single plus
That I know I could not have
If you had stayed with us
And it tears me up
When I think of how it could have been
Why can't I wish
Without unwishing?
I'll keep thanking you
After everything
You've done
And I wish and I wish and I wish that we spent more time
If only if only if only I had known what it'd all mean
So long you had been right next to me and I couldn't say---
I have no more right
In fact I have less
But in that light
I do not claim more than I am
We were barely friends
But that's not what concerned me
You kept them OK
And that's all I'd ever need
I have no more right
But I'll be glad for what you did
For me
And I wish and I wish and I wish that we spent more time
If only if only if only I had known what it'd all mean
So long you had been right next to me and I couldn't say---
And I wish and I wish and I wish that we spent more time
If only if only if only I had known what it'd all mean
So long you had been right next to me and I couldn't say---
--
And I wish and I wish and I wish that we spent more time
If only if only if only I had known what it'd all mean
So long you had been right next to me and I couldn't say---
And I know and I know and I know that you'll always be
Watching and waiting and caring and keeping them free
I can't ever go back but I know even then I couldn't say what I wanted to say
So from here to wherever you are
Thank you
I know nothing of song-making, but i reallly liked this one. I could like get the rhythm and everything! :) maria
