[Verse 1]
Fold my hands
Hit my knees
Send some words to the sky
"If You're there
Hey, it's me
I know it's been some time"
[Pre-Chorus]
But I gave up on You when I thought You gave up on me
You know You make it so hard to believe
[Chorus]
But if I ever get to Heaven
You know I got a long list of questions
Like how do You make a snowflake?
Are You angry when the earth quakes?
How does the sky change in a minute?
How do you keep this big rock spinning?
And why can't You stop a car from crashing?
Forgive me, I'm just asking
[Verse 2]
Break my soul
Change my heart
Have I lost my light?
Endless days
Sleepless stars
Morning's dark as night
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, 'cause I gave up on You when I thought You gave up on me
You know You make it so hard to believe
[Chorus]
If I ever get to Heaven
You know I got a long list of questions
Like how do You make a snowflake?
Are You angry when the earth quakes?
How does the sky change in a minute?
How do you keep this big rock spinning?
And why can't You stop a car from crashing?
Forgive me, I'm just asking
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, I'm just asking
Oh, I'm just asking
[Chorus]
If I ever get to Heaven
You know I got a long list of questions
Like how do You make a snowflake?
Are You angry when the earth quakes?
How does the sky change in a minute?
How do you keep this big rock spinning?
And if You got Your hand in everything that happens
Then why couldn't You stop that car from crashing?
Forgive me, I'm just asking

You said i’d never bother to make it out to Adelaide but i’m finally here. I got to sing a song I wrote about you tonight to 10,000 of your people, including your mom, your sister, and a whole lot of the rest of your family.
I’ll never be able to answer all the questions that came with you leaving....
