Mistakes are hard to recover from.
Consequence

I gave myself away to temptation, leaving you behind
There are no excuses for my actions, not even loss of mind
I allowed my heart to run toward greener grass
It would have been easier to let the hard times pass

I’d made plans of my own without consult
No approval from the One that mattered
So I had to emerge from the battleground
My heart and soul broken and tattered

We both said things we didn’t intend
Now we must forgive to let our hearts mend
For one brief moment of my life
I allowed myself to give in to strife
Resulting me on begging knees
For time to reverse and end my pleas
