Why Can't She
God, I've fallen
And I pray You're listening
'Cause I can't stop it
Like a weight around my soul
This heavy conscience
Is pulling me down
I'm learning
That when you bend the truth at all
It ends up broken
So I'm asking You for more than just redemption
Please hear me now
God, tonight I'm calling out
But just a prayer ain't saving me
I can't undo the wrong I've done
But I know that You can see
My heart's full of regret
That's why I'm down here on my knees
So if You can forgive me
Why can't she?
I got careless
I let her hand slip out of mine into someone else's
Asking her to come back now just seems so selfish
But I'm asking anyway
It might be helpless
Maybe this mistake is a taste of what hell is
Make her believe there's good in me through all this wreckage
Before it's too late
God, tonight I'm calling out
But just a prayer ain't saving me
I can't undo the wrong I've done
But I know that You can see
My heart's full of regret
That's why I'm down here on my knees
So if You can forgive me
Why can't she?
Oh, why can't she? Yeah
If there's anyone she'll listen to, it's You
So tonight I'm calling out
Just a prayer ain't saving me
I can't undo the wrong I've done
But I know that You can see
My heart's full of regret
That's why I'm down here on my knees
So if You can forgive me
Lord, I know You can forgive me
Why can't she?
Oh-oh-ohh, why can't she?
And I pray You're listening
'Cause I can't stop it
Like a weight around my soul
This heavy conscience
Is pulling me down
I'm learning
That when you bend the truth at all
It ends up broken
So I'm asking You for more than just redemption
Please hear me now
God, tonight I'm calling out
But just a prayer ain't saving me
I can't undo the wrong I've done
But I know that You can see
My heart's full of regret
That's why I'm down here on my knees
So if You can forgive me
Why can't she?
I got careless
I let her hand slip out of mine into someone else's
Asking her to come back now just seems so selfish
But I'm asking anyway
It might be helpless
Maybe this mistake is a taste of what hell is

Before it's too late

That's why I'm down here on my knees
So if You can forgive me

Oh, why can't she? Yeah

So if You can forgive me
Lord, I know You can forgive me
Why can't she?
Oh-oh-ohh, why can't she?
