Unanswered Prayers

Just the other night, at 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.

I thank god for unanswered prays, I once prayed to be with a girl and we broke up and I got hurt so bad, and I prayed that it would work out but it didn't. But now I think about the ones that I'm with now and I'm so happy. Now I thank God for unanswered prays

Unanswered Prayers is absolutely the most wonderful song and takes all of us baby boomers back to our days in high school and how we felt then and how many times we did pray for the silliest things not knowing what it would have meant. But the good Lord knows and he answered the right prayers for us all! Great Garth!
