What Can I Say

CHORUS:

Oh lord what can I say
To keep you from taking my baby away
Oh lord what can I do
To get you to make this wish come true
Please lord what can I say
To keep you from taking my baby away
Oh lord what can I say
To keep you from taking my best friend away

——
BRIDGE:

Did it have to be today
Isn’t there any way
That she can come
Sit and stay

Are there any words to say
Is there any way to pray
For even just
One more day

——-
VERSE:

I swear to God
It was an accident
She never meant
To do no harm

God help me please
I’ll do anything
I’ll sacrifice
I’ll compromise

I’ll give up every comfort
In the world
I’ll testify
I’ll spread the word

I’ll never ask
You for another thing
So help me God
As long as I live
As long as she lives

—
Even angels
have some demons
everybody got
a cross to bear

im on my knees
im begging please
can we avoid
catastrophe

what can I say
in your name i pray
how can I sway
your grace this way

I’ll never ask
You for another thing
So help me God
As long as I live
As long as she lives
