The Devil captured me

I was once wild and free, then you the devil captured me,
Picked me among all the flowers, then put me under your evil powers
Oh why couldn't you leave me be
As I was once so wild and free?

I was so young and you stole me away
Oh how I remember that dreadful day
You told me what was wrong was right
You wanted me to hate and fight

You told me love did not exsist
then put me on top of your evil list
You told me love and faith was wrong
Then started your heartless song

Your cruel game was to take my soul'
You told me it was the devil's goal
You took all the love I had inside
You wanted me to cower and hide

Oh why couldn't you leave me be
As I was once so wild and free
To laugh and sing and sit in the sun
To go on thinking life's just begun

To be with my friends among the clover
I'll pray to God to start all over
I know that he will hear my prayer
I have always known that he was there

I could have never survived your schemes
God took over and showed me my dreams
I didn't believe you or your lies
You always feared God would hear my cries

I was not at fault you see
Even though you tried to make me be
All the drugs and nasty tricks
You did for fun you called it kicks

I walk tall I walk with God
He showed me you were a fraud
Never had the right to take me at all
Never had the right to make me fall

Now I feel sorry for you
You will have to answer for all you do
I pray I never see you again
But I forgive you  for causing my pain.
