I ask forgiveness
I know I've lived in shame
Sometimes I have to wonder

Do you even know my name?
I'm sure it's no surprise to you
There are no heathens in foxholes

But what I want to ask you now
Is coming from my soul


I always kept a picture of you
I haven't looked at it for years
Now I'm reaching out to you

Through my solemn tears

So help me god, I need you now

Don't turn away from me
I swear to you, I shall believe
From this day on


I'm living all alone now
I thought I would be fine

No one at night, to hold me tight
So I don't lose my mind


Now I'm reaching out to you
Through my drunken tears


So help me god, I need you now
Don't turn away from me
I swear to you, I shall believe

From this day on
So help me god
Believe me now

So help me God
I need you now
