Lord I've been trying to be what I should. Lord I've been trying to do what I could. But each time it gets a little harder. I feel the pain. But I'll try again.
Won't you let me walk you home from school?. Won't you let me meet you at the pool?. Maybe Friday I can. Get tickets for the dance. And I'll take you, ooh ooh.
Years ago, my heart was set to live, oh. And I've been trying hard against unbelievable odds. It gets so hard in times like now to hold on. But guns they wait to be stuck by, at my side is God.
