Can't Seem
Lord,I really need to talk to You
Whenever You get the time
For I am very worried
And I have a lot on my mind
I've tried so many times
To tell You how sorry I am
You won't seem to listen
So I don't know how I can
Why won't You answer me
Why can't I get to You
Don't You love me anymore
I don't know what to do
I guess I'm lost forever
Without You I can not live
I can't be with You
If me-You can't forgive
I hear You softly saying
Child,I've not left you yet
It's just I can't remember
What you can't seem to forget
I can't forgive what's forgotten
I threw your sin into the sea
You just need to forget the past
And leave the rest to Me
