Yesterday's Prayer
I know that we were meant to be
For a time already past
A blessing God had sent to me
But wasn't meant to last
We walked the winding road of hope
Just destined to get lost
Where love became a slippery slope
On every path we crossed
A love that taught us how to grow
The kind that breaks your heart
But how were we supposed to know
We'd only grow apart?
Buried memories forced to die
They lay beside our dreams
A pain that hurts too much to cry
At least that's how it seems
A lesson learned, we walk away
Like we were never there
It's sad it had to end this way
Goodbye, yesterday's prayer
