You
ever seen a prayer in person?
The kind of thing that makes you believe?
All the waiting around was worth it,
but one of them meant to be.
Mine showed up out of nowhere in just a t-shirt and some jeans
And I knew right then,
right there,
she looked like forever to me
She gave 18 summers to Carolina,
spent a few more while been free
Gave a long shot chance to a Georgia boy in Tennessee
Gave a promise to her daddy,
and a grass stain to my knee
I might have gave her the diamond,
but she gave forever to me
Well there ain't no dancing round it,
when your whole world's standing there
Just cause we talked about it,
didn't mean I wasn't scared
Right there where I met her,
yeah I showed her the ring
Just waiting on her answer,
Lord,
felt like forever to me
Yeah she gave 18 summers to Carolina,
spent a few more while been free
Gave a long shot chance to a Georgia boy in Tennessee
Gave a promise to her daddy,
and a grass stain to my knee
I might have gave her the diamond,
but she gave forever to me
She gave forever to me
She gave
a yes to the dress with her mama,
that's gonna be something to see
She gave her heart to Jesus,
and he gave her to me
I wish she could have met my daddy,
know how happy he would be
That I gave her a diamond,
and she gave forever to me
