Better Man - 03/13/18 06:19 AM
Here's a song for the Lenten season.
As always, comments are welcome.
Better Man
Smoke and ashes are all that's left
Of our house of love
Fanned the embers, let them turn to flame
Finally burned it to the ground
Now you say you've given up
We should both walk away
What had together is not enough
No kind of love is worth this pain
I'll write a different story
Sing a better song
Find ways to show that I was wrong
CHORUS
Been long, dark night, but I'll set things right
I'll be a better man
I put the past away, moving to the day
I'll be a better man
I believed in all our dreams, guiding us like a star
Took for granted that you'd always stay
I've been so careless with your heart
I know you've been hurt, but I just couldn't see
I was blind, help me to find
The better man in me
REPEAT CHORUS
You'll be glad you stayed to help me find my way
To be a better man
I'll work all my life moving toward the light
To be that better man
