Analysis of Some Things Jesus Never Said
I'm sorry but I can't help now,
There's someone at the door.
I'll try to get to you somehow
To help you like before.
Oh, sorry but I did forget
To talk with you again.
You've probably have much regret
With most of that in sin.
I'm sure that I can make the time
To work you in my day.
Please leave your name and number, I'm
Quite sure I'll find a way.
