If I've been blonde and scatterbrained,
Out of it, and unrestrained
And didn't notice how your smile
Has been missing for awhile,
Please forgive me. 'Tis my goal
To plant a sunbeam in your soul,
And be a light when all are out.
I know well there's room to doubt.
But I do try. So often you
Don't reveal what you're going through.
Make no excuses-- I make none.
From now on I'll be the one
To lift you up as He does me.
More than all else here's my plea:
Don't let me fail you again.
I will help to bear your pain.
Forgive my foolishness, my lack.
I want to take today all back;
If you'll let me, from now on,
I'll be your light when all are gone.
