Charlie Bookout Studio Works - A Letter to God Lyrics

Dear God, I beg you hear my plea
Sir, I call upon your empathy
I know you're knowing how it feels to learn
That the one you love may someday burn

The other day she overheard him say
That he'd never take the time to pray
He classified the ritual as a joke
She can smell his soul burnin' up in smoke

Since she met him it's been in her plans
For the three of you to someday join hands
When she travels to the wonderful place
She wants him there when she sees your face
It's love touching grace
Love is taking place
When she sees your face

Dear God, she loves him so much
Please don't let him die, help her make him understand
That they could love each other longer than this life
Oh, sweet sweet Jesus, why does he disbelieve?
Why why why why?

If anybody killed her lover before
You and her were able to show him the right door
Upon his grave she would place a wreath
Eat some revenge, then she'd brush her teeth
And it would taste so sweet even though she knows it's bad
For not only did she lose her one-and-only, it makes my Lord sad

Dear God, she loves him so much
Please don't let him die, help her make him understand
That they could love each other longer than this life

So you wanna tell me bout your dreams
God wrote 'em all
No veto, he signed 'em and put 'em in effect
From the tiniest stream to Niagara Fall
And if you don't believe me, just ask my gang
It's Pride, Joy, Beck, Call, and me
We are the proletariat and bourgeoisie
Somewhere in between Lousy Anna and Misery
And let me tell ya refills ain't always free
So you better start readin' your text
It won't leave you vexed, you won't be perplexed
Because she, she, she, she
Wanna haunt your house, she wanna stomp your mouse
She may go so far as to say that someday
She might want to be your spouse
But if you choose to marry that mother of ghosts, dig
Then fine, I now pronounce you Frog and Pig
You may kiss the bride

Now they can love each other longer than this life
