God Gave You The Key

I remember when I first saw you and how you took my breath away;

I remember how I wondered and planned to make you mine night and day;

You were so beautiful so out of my league, heaven’s reflection was made after God saw your beautiful face;

I remember how nervous I was when I first asked your name;

 

I remember how I didn’t know how to treat you, how we never even had a first date;

How I made up a lie to push you away;

Since that moment I knew I made a mistake;

But girl the truth is nobody ever took the time to show me how to love a girl the right way;

 

I was born into a home where I saw my parents fight all the time;

Until my mother left my day and I didn’t even understand why;

I used to visit them on separate weekends living two different lives;

My step dads treated me cold and hard, all I did was cry;

 

Now that I’m older, independent and wise;

My heart has frozen I’ve learned to keep my feeling hidden inside;

As a man I find it hard to open up to anyone at all;

I guess I still have to recover from all my falls;

 

But I still remember this angel in disguise;

Never saw such beauty or an angel in real life;

I’m sorry for killing love before it had a chance to grow;

It was all my fault girl I hope this you know;

 

May I please have my 2nd chance?

To put you at ease I’ll only need half of that;

Tears have been my teacher and I got a masters degree from my past;

I will never hurt you or make you cry, you can put everything on that;

 

I know since me you been hurt all the way;

You closed your heart and given up on love until your dying day;

But give me the chance to give your heart life again;

Time has opened up my eyes and I regret doing you that way;

 

I’ve been missing you a lot, I just couldn’t find the courage to say;

I watched silently as another man took my place;

I know I told you the truth just the other day;

Dropping a bomb on you, I should have let us go when I watched you walk away;

 

But there was something about that angel I saw here that managed to escape;

Heaven has been searching, it just hasn’t been the same;

But God secretly told He gave you the key to heaven’s gate;

He had heard my prayers and He sent you to keep a smile on my face
