Well I'm stuck here in Nashville
All my friends have grown up and gone
As a boy, I thought I would get out of here
But my boyhood dreams have proved me wrong
Maybe God forgot to listen to my prayers
But I'm still waiting for that ace up his sleeve
Until then I'll be awaiting
Watching everyone else living out my dreams
The bottle calls my name way too early these days
My lungs are filling up with smoke
Money's not a problem yet, but I'm scared it will be soon
Never thought I'd be twenty-five and broke
Maybe God forgot to listen to my prayers
But I'm still waiting for that ace up his sleeve
Until then I'll be awaiting
Watching everyone else living out my dreams
What went wrong?
What did I not do?
Was I put on a shelf like a book you read in school?
Collecting dust, years from now
My pages, they will fade and wrinkle without use
Maybe God forgot to listen to my prayers
But I'm still waiting for that ace up his sleeve
