Sorrow

Intro

(head down, let the beat breathe)

Now I’m pouring something slow, trying to sit with what I did

Thank God for the love You sent, even if I couldn’t keep it

Verse

Head spinning, thoughts heavy, I replay it every night

Looking back, I see the ways I never got it right

Tried to lead with pride instead of leading with my heart

I was selfish in my ways, didn’t know where to start

I see it clearer now, where I caused you pain

I pushed instead of pulled, let control take the reins

Scrolling through our talks, I still hear your care

I hate that I was blind when you were always there

Chorus

Chest tight, heart heavy, but I’m learning how to pray

Asking God to change me, take these selfish ways

I lost you, and that truth still hurts me tonight

But I thank God for you, you were real in my life

Verse

I’m sorry for the times I twisted words to feel in control

Sorry for the ways I hurt you, never meaning to be cold

You gave me grace when I barely gave it back

I took your patience lightly, yeah, that’s the fact

You believed in me when my faith would fall

Saw something in me when I saw nothing at all

Now I sit with the truth, no excuses to hide

Just a man facing flaws he’s been running beside

Chorus

Chest tight, heart heavy, but I’m learning how to pray

Asking God to change me, take these selfish ways

I lost you, and that truth still hurts me tonight

But I thank God for you, you were real in my life

Verse

I won’t say I’ll change just to sound mature

I’ll prove it in silence, let the work be pure

Learning how to love without trying to own

Learning how to listen, let humility grow

If our paths never cross the way they once did

Know you helped shape the man that I’m trying to live

I release the regret, keep the lesson in view

And I thank God for letting me love someone like you

Outro

(fade, peaceful)

Now I’m bowing my head, trying to do this right

Thank God for her presence, even for a season in my life
