No - Brad Paisley Lyrics
No
About the brand new bike, that I didn't get.
I'd prayed my heart out, and it didn't seem fair,
I told my grandpa, I guess God doesn't care,
And he just smiled, and said my child,
Make no mistake, every prayer you pray,
Gets answered, even though,
Sometimes, the answer is no.
With a stolen pack of grandpa's cigarettes,
I struck a match, and held that first one to my lips,
And prayed to God please let me get away with this,
And through the smoky air, I saw grandpa standing there.
Make no mistake, every prayer you pray,
Gets answered, even though,
Sometimes, the answer is no.
When I think of all the answers in my life, I would have to say,
There's no doubt it was always for the best,
When I didn't get my way.
Grandpa got older, like grandpas do,
His health was failing, and I guess I knew,
That it'd be best if he was called on home,
But selfishly I prayed that God would keep him hanging on,
And when he passed away, in my mind I heard him say.
Make no mistake, every prayer you pray,
Gets answered, even though,
Sometimes, the answer is no.
Sometimes, the answer,
Is no.
