Let Me Wash My Sins

Give me a chance to talk
Let me wash my sins
With the unending tears
From the depth of my heart

I did nothing purposely
To make you cry or upset
I was wrong and mistaken
I thought I did it for the good

Yes !  It helped me to have peace 
I didn't know it made you scared
I thought I did it out of love
But love should have expressed differently

I know you understand 
What I want to say
I don't want others to hear
What did I do wrong to you
  
So give me a chance 
Let me wash that guilt away
I just want to know you forgave me
The trespass I did to you

It is up to you
I tried and tried
Still I am trying
Will you give me a chance ?
