V1: Scattered leaves on the ground
soft breeze blowing in the night
waitin' for you to notice me
as the world turns around
CH: (softly) Lord, I just pray
please take away his pain
V2: Years slipping by
these memories so dear
i hold deep inside
CH: (softly) Lord, I pray
down on bended knee
show him unconditional love
V3: Misty rains washin' away my tears
wondering what went wrong
prayin' he'll give us another try
CH: (softly) Lord, I pray
please take away his pain
V4: Don't wanna lose him
need him close by
love so deep, so true
CH: (softly) Lord, I pray
down on bended knee
show Him your almighty grace
V5: Hurt goes on, so long now
biding my time,
wondering what went wrong
CH: (softly) Lord, I pray
take his heart
and cherish him
V6: Softly fallin' asleep
distant memories reach out
tears slip down
CH: (softly) Lord, I pray
make it new
make it alright
(this song i wrote last year. it deals with my struggles within my marriage and dealing with a man whose past still haunts him. i can only hope and pray that i have loved him unconditionally as Christ taught me)
