Won't Go Wasted

Troubled times
You've had your share
Don't it seem much less than fair
And when you love
Your love's complete
So baby when it ends
Your hurt runs deep

Now you think the only thing left
Is to quit and fall to your knees
But I don't know anyone who hasn't had to fight
For what they need

All of the real love
All of your prayers above
All that you're dreaming of
Won't go wasted

People smile then break your heart
Broken promises right from the start
Don't you know you're hard on yourself
You feel you're always to blame
They'll try and drag you down
But don't you let them make you feel ashamed

All of the real love
All of your prayers above
All that you're dreaming of
Won't go wasted

I know it's hard but you've got to be strong
You've got to be strong baby
You've got to hold on
Hold on to your dreams baby

Now you think the only thing left
Is to quit and fall to your knees
But I don't know anyone who hasn't had to fight
For what they need

Interpretation

I know you are hurting from this breakup. When you love someone and it ends, it really hurts. When nothing else seems to help, you turn to prayer. Please know that there is no such thin as wasted prayers. Keep fighting your way through the difficult time. and keep praying through it all.
