I talk of you when I pray

Never wanted it to end this way,
Sorry it wasn't different,
I talk of you when I pray.

Beautiful sunny Sunday,
Air filled with joy, no hint,
I never wanted it to end this way.

Planned a trip, fishing boat in bay,
catching trout your intent,
I talk of you when I pray.

Green pickup sits in driveway,
Whole front end a big dent,
Never wanted it to end this way.

Crumpled fender, muddy red clay,
you were killed in the accident,
I talk of you when I pray.

Victim of the black paved highway,
No chance for you to repent,
Never wanted it to end this way,
I talk of you when I pray.
