It has been so long since we were a "thing"
But I can remember it all.
The pain has lost most of its sting.
I'm standing sturdy enough not to fall.
Back then God said, "You are going to stand tall"
And he reached out His hand.
He said, "This'll be the last time you fall."
He said it as a command.
Of course God is right in everything
But I seem to fail Him a lot.
He is my Lord, my Savior, my King,
But I make Him sad more often than not.
I loved you, that's what I did;
Gave too much of my heart away.
God said your true feelings you hid.
I wish I had listened to Him that day.
I was too afraid to get close to you.
Maybe it was God's doing.
Hold you was all I wanted to do;
More than anything.
Though we never touched
You made me feel so good.
You said you liked me so much
And I believe as much as I could.
As soon as I got comfortable
I noticed something was wrong.
To ask you I was unable,
But the answer came and it didn't take long.
I came too close to tears that night
When you told me goodbye.
I just wanted to hold you tight.
I kept asking God why.
God gave me an answer to my question
But it wasn't what I wanted to hear.
He said I had fallen again;
That I was holding you too dear.
I'll never forget the pain you gave me,
But again God reached out His hand.
He put you in my life to be
A trial He knew I could stand.
Now I'm stronger than ever before.
The pain is fading fast.
You are still the one I adore,
But I would never repeat the past.
But if with you God agrees
I want to be with you again.
With you is where I want to be,
But I'll have to wait until then...
...It has been so long since we were a "thing"
But I can remember it all.
God has taken away the sting.
I'm standing now, I won't fall.
