Текст песни
I met God's Will on a Halloween night
He was dressed as a bag of leaves
It hid the braces on his legs at first
His smile was brighter than the August sun
When he looked at me
As he struggled down the driveway, it almost made me hurt
'Cause Will don't walk too good
Will don't talk too good
And he won't do the things the other kids do in my neighborhood
And I've been searching, wandering, thinking
Lost and looking all my life
I've been wounded, jaded, loved and hated
And I wrestle wrong and right
He was a boy without a father
And his mother's a miracle
And I've been reading, writing, praying, fighting
And I guess I would be still
Yeah, that was until
I knew God's Will
Will's mom had to work two jobs
We'd watch him when she had to work late
We'd all laugh like I hadn't laughed since I don't know when
"Hey Jude" was his favorite song
At dinner, he'd ask to pray
And he'd pray for everybody in the world but him
And I've been searching, wandering, thinking
Lost and looking all my life
I've been wounded, jaded, loved and hated
And I wrestle wrong and right
He was a boy without a father
And his mother's a miracle
And I've been reading, writing, praying, fighting
And I guess I would be still
Yeah, that was until
I knew God's Will
Before they moved to California
His mother said they didn't think he'd live
And so each day that I have him
Well, it's just another gift
And I never got to tell her
That the boy showed me the truth
In crayon red on notebook paper
He'd written "Me and God love you"
And I've been searching, praying, wounded, jaded
And I guess I would be still
Yeah, that was until
I met God's Will on a Halloween night
He was dressed as a bag of leaves
