Please Answer Me Tonight

 

I've listened so many times before

To what my heart has said,

Only to find myself at night

Crying in my bed

Today I said, "I love you"

To one very close to me,

And I haven't had that feeling

Since that day I was set free

It has taken many years My Lord

For my eyes to gain this sight,

Did I do right in what I said?

Please answer me tonight

Tell me if my heart

Is reacting far to fast,

Have I really gone long enough

To forget about the past?

Have I forgiven and truly meant it

Or is there still some doubt within?

Please tell me that I'm free of this

And I've washed away their sin

The one I truly love Dear Lord

Should never have to feel,

That the cards I laid in front of them

Are part of a misdeal

So I'm asking my biggest question Lord

Because I'd like to see your light,

Shine down your approval to comfort me

Please answer me tonight
