Verse 1

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

Chorus

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

Verse 2

I prayed about us every night

Boy I know you had to hear me

You could've stopped me then and told the truth

But instead you pulled the pillow over your head

Chorus

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

Bridge

You should've told me it was useless,

That I was praying empty prayers

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 had something better to do

 Than to sit and listen to a broken-hearted fool

Could've 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

Chorus

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
