Mary J. Blige - Empty Prayers Lyrics

Send "Empty Prayers" ringtone to your cell

I tried my best to keep you here

But it's hard to hold a shadow

You said goodbye but I couldn't hear

Too busy praying for a miracle

And you left me on my knees

You just walked out the door

You didn't even have the decency to intervene while I was begging God for

You to love me

I prayed about us every night

Boy I know you had to hear me

You could've stopped me then and told the truth

But instead you pulled the pillow over your head

And you left me on my knees

You just walked out the door

You didn't even have the decency to intervene while I was begging God for

You to love me

You should've told me it was useless that I was praying empty prayers

But you hopped in your car pulled out your keys

While you were leaving I was begging God for you to love me

And I know that He had something better to do

Than to sit and listen to a broken-hearted fool

Could've been saving the world from a tragedy but instead He was listening

To me

I was asking begging for a sign to bring comfort to this lonely heart of

Mine

But apparently you're not what I need

I guess you walking out was Him answering

You left me on my knees

You just walked out the door

You didn't even have the decency to intervene while I was begging God for

You to love me

I tried my best to keep you here

But it's hard to hold a shadow
