Singer/songwriter Billy Franks has an album called “Sex Laughter & Meditation” and he gave me permission to let readers download one of the songs off that CD. It’s called “Sometimes I Wish There Was a God So I Could Pray For Him To Watch Over My Children” and you can download it for free by clicking here.
Sometimes I wish there was a god so I could
Pray for him to watch over my children
Where do the days go?
I hope you know, I’m counting on you
And how far is the death star from our backyard and what can you do?Baby, death stars and days all move away.
But I will stay for you
Sometimes I wish there was a god so I could
Pray for him to watch over my childrenHow come more mothers cry.
And fathers lie, like they do?
How come it hurts to breathe, when you leave
And I can’t come too?Baby, good friends and lovers
Still hurt each other, even when they try not to.
Sometimes I wish there was a god so I could
Pray for him to watch over my children
Awwwwww…
A commenter on Amazon summed up the song this way:
[It is] perhaps the most heartfelt song on the disc. It deals with a father as he tries to explain the mysteries of the universe to his questioning daughter… her most poignant question being “How come it hurts to breathe, when you leave and I can’t come too?” Maybe earthly questions are the most difficult to explain. This song (both lyrically and musically) is POWERFUL…
