Eli - Things I Prayed For lyrics

Things I prayed for when I was young That my father would love me like his only son That my mother would be patient with me My sister would not leave And if my grandpa could see me beyond his grave That he'd think his little man was so brave That my hair would not stick up in weird places And I'd be someone some day Years go by so easily that sometimes I forget Years go by and make me see that there's No time for my regrets No time for my regrets Things I prayed for in my teens That God would forgive all my evil deeds That my father and my sister would come home And my mum could meet our needs And if my grandpa could see me beyond his grave That he'd say a prayer for his familys sake That my hair would not stick up in weird places And I'd be someone someday Years go by so easily and sometmes I forget Years go by and make me se that there's No time for my regrets No time for my regrets, yeah Things I prayed for now in my twenties That God would still love me And my dad would like his new family That I could hug my sister That my mum could rest That my wife would still melt everytime we kissed And if my grandpa has seen me beyond his grave So cold and silent he has remained That my hair would not fall out in weird places And I'd be someone some day Years go by so easily and sometimes I forget Years go by and make me see that there's No time for my regrets These are the things I prayed I'd be someone some day, yeah I'd be someone some day I'd be someone someday yeh I'd be someone some day I'd be somene some day I would be someone someday I'd be someone some day
