Third Day - Can't Take the Pain
Lyrics by Mac Powell / Music by Third Day
From the recording: Time, Track #8.
No, I didn't see this one coming It suddenly snuck up on me I can't say you didn't tell me so I can't say you didn't warn me I can't take the pain of knowing that I left You I can't bear the shame of knowing I was wrong But I'll take the blame for everything that I've done I can't take the pain of leaving you alone Of leaving you alone
I was there when they accused you but I guess I was too afraid Not just once and not just twice But three times I denied your name
I never thought I'd get even a second chance But you've given that and so much more And then for every time I ever did deny You ask me if I love you, You know I do, Lord
So I'm off to follow in your steps it won't be easy, it's safe to say There are only tow roads I can walk on down The road less traveled is the one you paved
Lord, You took the pain even though I left You And You took the shame and You made it all Your own Why'd you take the blame for everything that I've done? Lord, You took the pain You and You alone, You and You alone
