You ever seen a prayer in person?
Kind of thing that makes you believe
All the waitin' 'round was worth it
One of them meant-to-be's
Mine showed up out of nowhere
In just a T-shirt and some jeans
And I knew right then, right there
She looked like forever to me
She gave 18 summers to Carolina
Spent a few more wild and free
Gave a long shot chance to a Georgia boy in Tennessee
I gave a promise to her daddy
And a grass stain to my knee
I might've gave her the diamond, but she gave forever to me
Well, there ain't no dancin' 'round it
When your whole world standin' there
Just 'cause we've talked about it
Didn't mean I wasn't scared
And right there where I met her
Yeah, I showed her the ring
Just waitin' on her answer, Lord, felt like forever to me
Yeah, she gave 18 summers to Carolina
Spent a few more wild and free
Gave a long shot chance to a Georgia boy in Tennessee
I gave a promise to her daddy
And a grass stain to my knee
I might've gave her the diamond, but she gave forever to me, yeah
She gave forever to me
She gave a "yes" to the dress with her mama
That's gonna be somethin' to see
She gave her heart to Jesus
And He gave her to me
I wish you coulda met my daddy
Know how happy he would be
That I gave her a diamond and she gave forever to me
