Maybe this time...
i'm for you
whether or not you're for me
i'll be true
and i wish you'd be
you say you'll change
but you stay the same
and then what about me?
One more chance
she cries gimme one more chance
I'll try, I can only try but
she lies, she lies
I'll give you
anything you'll ever need
But then you use
And my heart bleeds
you say you'll change
but you stay the same
and then what about me?
one more chance
she cries gimme one more chance
I'll try, i can only try but
she lies, she lies
Pour me out
And still i grieve
Without a doubt
I'll never leave
and you say you'll change
but you stay the same
and then what about me?
one more chance,
she cries, gimme one more chance
i'll try, i can only try but
she lies, she lies
You want to quit
They hold you down
You're through with it
But still you drown
and you say you'll change
but you stay the same
and then what about me?
one more chance,
she cries, gimme one more chance
i'll try, i can only try but
she lies, she lies
I'm going to wait
I'm going to love
I'm going to pray
Strength...strength from Above
and you say you'll change
but you stay the same
and one of these days
you'll stop playin the game
God,
You alone have unending mercy and love. I can only give so much. And it hurts me so much. I was convinced that she would change. I made everyone believe her and give her JUST ONE MORE CHANCE. It was honestly the happiest day of my life when I read her plans on paper. The letters came. I read a change. But after JUST ONE DAY she stayed the same. It hurts me so much but when I told her that I would never give up, I meant that I would never give up. I'm not going to leave. And it makes my heart so sick, but even if it's just me I will love her. I caught a glimpse today of how this must pain you, God. To see your beloved children play with your gifts. To ask for one more chance and never change. I felt a glimpse of Your pain. And it is of the most piercing pain. Help her, God. She knows You, she knows your Son, and she knows the roads. She has no strength to overcome, but You are her strength. Help her, please? I love her more than anyone else in this world. Please, God.
