I was reading a book and mentioned something about YOUR songs as a couple.
I have a photo album I made of H and I since we started dating, and I wrote inside the cover "our songs" His was "Tough Times dont last, Lovers Do" and then my song for us was "Pray for Me" by Michael W. Smith.
I look at how odd a song that was to choose for a couple?
I just read the lyrics tonight, havent listened to this song in soo long, If you havent heard it, go find it, its a tear jerker. Beautifully sang.
Im just kinda in shock at looking at what it says. Remember I was about 17 when I wrote this in the album.
Pray For Me
Michael W. Smith / Wayne Kirkpatrick
Here is where the road divides
Here is where we realize
The sculpting of the Father's great design
Thru' time you've been a friend to me
But time is now the enemy
I wish we didn't have to say goodbye
But I know the road He chose for me
Is not the road he chose for you
So as we chase the dreams we're after
Chorus:
Pray for me and I'll pray for you
Pray that we will keep the common ground
Won't you pray for me and I'll pray for you
And one day love will bring us back around again
Painted on our tapestry
We see the way it has to be
Weaving thru' the laughter and the tears
But love will be the tie that binds us
To the time we leave behind us
Memories will be our souvenirs
And I know that thru' it all
The hardest part of love is letting go
But there's a greater love that holds us
