Let Me Forget

Awakened to the stillness in the darkened room Listen to the night sound as dawn is coming soon Sleep eludes my weary body as I listen to my mind Can’t chase away the thought of those words so unkind Common sense says to let the hurtful words slip away Must the anger and hurt dwell inside my heart this way Lift the pain from me is the hearts anguished cry Kneeling at the bedside I ask the father why Will the end ever come to the price I've had to pay? Will forgiveness for my mistakes ever come my way As I return to lay my head upon my feather pillow Just because some one says it doesn’t make it so Doing my best is the way it was supposed to be If I measure up to him above is what I long to see
