"THIS DEBT" by David Guilbault

I’m sittin’ here drinkin’ - alone again
From a bottle of bitter regret.
The pain washes down all the - worry and fear
That I‘ll never pay off this debt.

What I owe is so overwhelming,
That I’ll never pay off this debt.

You saved me from ruin and - made me anew,
When I squandered all that was good.
The debt that I owe you is - long overdue
I’d pay you if only I could.

What I owe is so overwhelming.
What I owe is more than you know.
What I owe for your - understanding and more
Are blessings that I can’t bestow.

So, I’m feeling guilty for - failing you so,
When you were there, loyal and true.
You stood by my side when - I lost it all.
There’s too much that I’m owing you.

What I owe is so overwhelming,
From favors that I won’t forget.
And the truth is told - in the int’rest I hold.
That I’ll never pay off this debt.

So, I’m cryin’ here - alone again
‘Cause I’m just not up to the task.
I’m just a man who keeps - trying and then
I disappoint you at last.

What I owe is so overwhelming.
What I owe is more than you know.
What I owe for your - understanding and more
Are blessings that I – wish that I could provide.
But, I’ll never pay off this debt.
