| I knew all the answers | |
| The way my life should go | |
| And when I used to say my prayers | |
| I would tell God so | |
| It seemed He wasn't listening | |
| I thought He didn't care | |
| But lookin' back | |
| It's plain to see | |
| He was always there | |
| 'Cause I prayed for strength | |
| And I got pain that made me strong | |
| I prayed for courage | |
| And got fear to overcome | |
| When I prayed for faith | |
| My empty heart brought me to my knees | |
| I don't always get what I want | |
| I get what I need | |
| I'm not sayin' that it's easy | |
| Or that it doesn't hurt | |
| When nothing seems to go my way | |
| Nothing seems to work | |
| These days I'm getting better | |
| At goin' with the flow | |
| Accepting that sometimes the answer | |
| To a prayer is no | |
| 'Cause I prayed for strength | |
| And I got pain that made me strong | |
| I prayed for courage | |
| And got fear to overcome | |
| When I prayed for faith | |
| My empty heart brought me to my knees | |
| I don't always get what I want | |
| I get what I need | |
| Every time I've had a door slammed in my face | |
| In time a better one was opened in its place | |
| I prayed for strength | |
| And I got pain that made me strong | |
| I prayed for courage | |
| And got fear to overcome | |
| When I prayed for faith | |
| My empty heart brought me to my knees | |
| I don't always get what I want | |
| I get what I need | |
| Oh I don't always get what I want | |
| I get what I need |
