Broken Apology

Sam, these words are not "generic". It stirked a chord in my heart. I'd like to thank you for it!

you let me walk away
though you've tried a thousand many times
like a love that's unrequited i did not reply
and if i died tonighti'd still awake in your arms

you let me walk away
though it pierces your heart
and i've run so far so many times
i'm stained with your blood
and all of my thoughts just keep tearing us apart


so i'm singing this late apology
and i pray that you'll not take your sweet presence from me
oh Jesus redeemer, my king and my saviour
my precious constant faithful friend
no matter what life brings
but i keep singing the same apology
and i pray that you'll not take your sweet presence from me
oh keep me forever, in all life's endeavours
it's here that i belong, with you my king

though i've come so far thought my battles are already won
but the road's just got rockier
i'm back to square onei never learn my lessons well
and i'm always searching for something else
