Lately

Lately I have been running Lately I have been hiding Lately I have been hoping Lately I have been dreading Lately I have been missing Lately I have been crying Lately I have been lying Lately I have ignored your smile Lately I have ignored your words Lately I have ignored your wisdom Lately I have ignored you guidance Lately I have ignored your help Lately I have ignored your love Lately I have ignored your peace Lately I have lost your smile while I was running Lately I have lost your words while I was hiding Lately I have lost your wisdom while I was hoping Lately I have lost your guidance while I was dreading Lately I have lost your help while I was missing Lately I have lost your love while I was crying Lately I have lost your peace while I’ve been lying Lord give me back your smile Lord give me back your words Lord give me back your wisdom Lord give me back your guidance Lord give me back your help Lord give me back your love Lord give me back your peace
