Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file

Just the other night at 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 I'd wanted for all times
And each night I'd spend prayin'
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
I remembered in my dreams
I could tell 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
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 doesn't answer
doesn't mean he don't care

Some of God's greatest gifts
are unanswered...
Some of God's greatest gifts
are unanswered prayers
Some of God's greatest gifts
are unanswered prayers
