THAT’S NOT WHO I AM ANYMORE ©2019 Ricki Bellos/Robert George BMI

Midnight was a silver shroud of fog
I could hear the barking of her dog
And outside I saw the woman I once cared for
As I stepped out slowly from the dark
I said, I know I betrayed your heart
But that’s not who I am anymore

I know you’re surprised to see me now
O but in the strangest way somehow
Your forgiveness means more than it did before
Looking through a tear-stained veil of time
You have seen the fault was always mine
But that’s not who I am anymore

This past Sunday when you came to say goodbye
I looked up and saw you kneel and cry
So I’ll tell you things about my smashed-up Ford
Not found in that deputy’s report

There was wine beside me on the seat
And no skid marks on that lonely street
Where my Mustang hit that big old sycamore
As I’m borne away on midnight winds
Please forgive me for my foolish sins
Cos that’s not who I am anymore

Now, believe me, this is not a dream
I learned the hard way what these words mean
On the night we meet the Holy Ghost
It’s forgiveness that we need the most

As I stepped out slowly in the dark
I said, I know I betrayed your heart
But that’s not who I am anymore
That’s not who I am anymore…
