I am afraid
I've let time slip away.
Do you feel betrayed (do you feel betrayed)
now that you've turned to clay?
Things I didn't say
to help you find your way.
I let you go astray,
and now you've gone away.
If I had portrayed,
would you have fallen prey? (fallen prey)
Reaching out too late,
gone is yesterday.
Things I didn't say
to help you find your way.
I let you go astray,
and now you've gone away.
On my knees I pray,
help me learn Lord from my mistakes. (Lord from my mistakes)
Those I meet try to persuade.
No more living a pale charade.
Things I always say
to help you find your way.
So when you leave this place,
Jesus you will embrace!
