Fool I've Been Today

God forgive me for the fool I've been today

I just throw that girl you sent to me away

Lord I'll bet you shook your head at those awful things I said

When I let my foolish pride get in the way.

And God forgive me for the man I fail to be

To one who's only sin was loving me

If I've got a right to pray after treating her this way

God forgive me for the fool I've been today.

Lord, I thought I'd die when that tear came in her eye

And that look of disbelief came on her face

What a shame she had to see the ugly side of me

Just when my lonely heart had found it's place.

God forgive me for the fool I've been today

How much love can one man throw away

I hadn't planned on growing old without that sweet and gentle soul

God forgive me for the fool I've been today...
