Lyrics

Someone must have been praying for me
'Cause I'm doing better than I ought to be
Sometimes I open my eyes and I can't believe it
Yeah, someone must have been
Someone must have been praying for me

West Coast kid in a Chevy S-10
Everything I own in the back of the bed
Wide-eyed dreaming about a Nashville skyline
Naive enough to think that it's my time
Singing about pipe dreams
Hanging on by heart strings
A hundred doors kept on closing
For the one door you blew open, yeah

Someone must have been praying for me
'Cause I'm doing better than I ought to be
Sometimes I open my eyes and I can't believe it
Yeah, someone must have been
Someone must have been praying for me, yeah, yeah, yeah

This has got to be as good as it gets 'cause it feels like fiction
Little footsteps running through the kitchen
Lonely nights of running on the highway
Turned into a couple bikes in the driveway
Living that pipe dream
I'm doing better than I ought to be
Of all the lives that I could have lived in
When I see this one I've been given, I think

Someone must have been praying for me
'Cause I'm doing better than I ought to be (than I ought to be)
Sometimes I open my eyes and I can't believe it
Yeah, someone must have been
Someone must have been praying for me

Somebody must have been
Somebody must have been
Somebody must have been praying for me
When I see you in the morning, I know
Somebody must have been
Somebody must have been
Somebody must have been praying for me
Somebody must have been praying for me

Someone must have been praying for me
'Cause when I hold my daughter, I hear heaven speak
Sometimes I open my eyes, I can't believe it
Yeah, someone must have been
Someone must have been praying for me

I thank God they were praying for me
