(verse 1)
She never takes off her wedding ring
Even though he left 5 years ago
She won't come out and spread her wings
Her feet never leave the ground
As the tears start to fall, she stares at the wall
And asks the good Lord to take her now
(chorus)
Millions of tears dot her pillow at night
As she cries herself to sleep
Dreaming of him, touching her skin
Whispering love in her ear
She reaches out to touch his face
And he slowly disappears
(verse 2)
He is a man on a mission, nothing gets in his way
He walked out on her, without an answer
As to why he was giving up
On the love that they shared,nothing compared
To the beauty that stood within
He had someone else, he put there love on a shelf
And walked out of her life
(repeat chorus)
(verse 3)
She prays every night as she kisses her ring
Holding it close to her heart
She's not giving up, on the love
That she truly deserves
There's a knock on the door, she hits the floor
Knowing that he has come home
He stands there, unaware that she still cares
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
They hold each other tight, all through the night
As she silently says a prayer
Thank you dear Lord, Our loves restored
He has found his way home
Tears of joy dot her pillow at night
As she falls fast asleep
Her faith brought him back, her lifes back on track
As she kisses her wedding ring

Good Lyrics.
Maybe she should have shot the cheating so and so instead of taking him back.
It has good lyrics and tells a nice story. Do you have a melody for the song? It seems that it might be in the country genre.
