Story behind the song
A song about a terrible decision made long ago.
It starts with me praying for the soul of the gift from God that we didn't bring home.
It ends with me asking the pure sweet little soul in heaven to pray for my soul.
Lyrics
A gift from God
But we never brought you home
With choice we chose
Now feel all alone
A gift from God
But we never brought you home
A gift from God
But we never brought you home
We were told
It’s okay to say no
And so we did
Now feel so alone
Baby
I pray for your soul
Always in our memory
But gone like days of old
Baby
I pray for your soul
Always in our memory
But we didn’t bring you home
We were told
It’s okay to say no
With choice we chose
Now feel so alone
I close my eyes
I see you in a dream
Eyes open wide
I know now what it means
Baby
Please pray for my soul
Asking for forgiveness
For sins from days old
Baby
Please pray for my soul
A gift from God above
But we never brought you home
A gift from God above
But we never brought you home
A gift from God above
But we never brought you home
