Album: The Richest Man In The World
Chorus: Ben Rector
Someone must have been prayin' for me
'Cause I'm doing better than I oughta be
Sometimes I open my eyes and I can't believe it, yeah
Someone must have been
Someone must have been prayin' for me
Verse 1: Mat Kearney
West Coast kid in a Chevy S-10
Everything I own in the back of the bed
Wide-eyed dreamin' about a Nashville skyline
Naive enough to think that it's my town
Singin' about pipe dreams
Hangin' on by heart strings
100 doors kept on closin'
For thе one door you blew open, yеah
Chorus: Ben Rector
Someone must have been prayin' for me
'Cause I'm doing better than I oughta be
Sometimes I open my eyes, I can't believe it, yeah
Someone must have been
Someone must have been prayin' for me
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Verse 2: Mat Kearney
This has got to be as good as it gets
'Cause it feels like fiction
Little footsteps runnin' through the kitchen
Long nights runnin' on the highway
Turned into a couple bikes in the driveway ("Wear your helmet")
Livin' that pipe dream
I'm doin' better than I oughta be
Of all the lives that I could've lived in
When I see this one I've been given, I think
Chorus: Ben Rector
Someone must have been prayin' for me
'Cause I'm doing better than I oughta be
Sometimes I open my eyes and I can't believe it, yeah
Someone must have been
Someone must have been prayin' for me
Bridge: background, Ben Rector
(Somebody must have been)
(Somebody must have been)
(Somebody must have been prayin' for me)
When I see you in the morning, I know
(Somebody must have been)
(Somebody must have been)
Somebody must have been prayin' for me
(Somebody must have been prayin' for me)
Chorus: Ben Rector
Someone must have been prayin' for me
'Cause when I hold my daughter, I hear heaven speak
Sometimes I open my eyes, I can't believe it, yeah
Someone must have been
Someone must have been prayin' for me
Outro: Ben Rector
I thank God they were prayin' for me
