At This Point In My Life

At this point in my life, I've done so many things wrong I don't

know if

I can do right.

If you put your trust in me, I hope I won't let you down.

If you give me a chance, I'll try.

You see it's been hard the road I'm traveling on, and if I take

your

hand I might lead you down the path to ruin.

I've had a hard life-just saying so you understand that right

now, right

now I'm doing the best that I can at this point in my life.

At this point in my life, although I've mostly walked in the

shadows,

I'm still searching for light.

Won't you put your faith in me?

We both know that's what matters.

If you give me a chance, I'll try.

You see, I've been climbing stairs, but mostly stumbling down.

I've been reaching high but mostly losing ground.

You see I've conquered hills but I still have mountains to climb

and

right now, right now, I'm doing the best I can at this point in

my life.

Before we take a step, before we walk down the path, before I

make any

promises, before you have regrets, before we talk commitment,

let me

tell you of my past-all I've seen and all I've done, the things

I'd like

to forget at this point in my life.

At this point in my life, I'd like to live as if only love

mattered, as

if redemption was in sight, as if the search to live honestly is

all

that anyone needs, no matter if you find it.

You see when I've touched the sky, the earth's gravity has

pulled me

down.

But now I've reconciled that in this world, birds and angels get

the

wings to fly.

If you can believe in this heart of mine, if you can give it a

try, then

I'll reach inside and find and give you all the sweetness that I

have at

this point in my life, at this point in my life.
