As I look at what I've done The type of life that I've lived How many things I pray the father will forgive One situation involved a young man He was the ocean and I was the sand He stole my heart like a thief in the night Dulled my senses, blurred my sight **I used to love him but now I don't [x2]** I chose a road of passion and pain Sacrificed too much and waited I vain Gave up my power and ceased being a queen Addicted to love like the drug of a fiend Torn and confused, wasted and used Reached the crossroad which path would I choose? Stuck and frustrated I waited, debated For something to happen that just wasn't fated Thought what I wanted was something I needed When momma said no I just should have heeded Misled I bled 'til the poison was gone And out of the darkness arrives the sweet dawn **Chorus** Father you saved me and showed me that life Was much more than being some foolish man's wife Showed me that love was respect and devotion Greater than plants deeper than oceans My soul was weary but now it's replenished Content because that part of my life is finished I see him sometimes and the look in his eye Is one of a man whose lost treasures untold But my heart is gold and I took back my soul And totally let my creator control The life which was his to begin with **Chorus** [Repeat to End] | ||||||
