A Prayer for My Man
April, 25, 1985
Lord above, watch over me,
Help me solve the mystery.
I love him so, he owns my heart,
I love him now, tho’ we’re apart.
He has his job, you see,
He’s gone now, away from me.
I think of him throughout the day,
And for his safety each night I pray.
I used to like the other boys,
But now they lack his love and joys.
Today, again, he had to leave me,
Again he kissed me tenderly.
His love , his kiss, his last embrace,
One part of the day, I can’t erase.
I know that he loves me so,
But in the end he had to go.
When he left, I cried and cried,
I felt a part of me had died.
It’s not been long, yet I miss him so,
My heart will never let him go.
He loves me as more than a friend,
Because that’s less than we have been.
Our life together will never end,
Soon I’ll kiss his lips again.
So, now Dear Lord, I guess you see,
Just how very much he means to me.
So, watch over us, Dear Lord,
Keep us together forever.
