Big Daddy Weave Why song lyrics

Walking down the road this life is on

The narrow path I try to stay

But I must confess I have a tendency to stray

Well, I'd love to call it a mistake

A momentary lapse of faith

But the truth is sometimes I feel that I'm being dragged away

By the other side that people never see

A war is on between the good and bad inside of me.

So why do I do all the things that I do

When I want to do what is right?

Change this wicked heart of mine

Let me walk with you in the new life. Yeah

So what will ever put an end

To this recurring bout with sin

It seems I'm always at a loss for a way to win

But, what I really need to do

Is to confront it with the truth

And let your words of life sink in and make my mind brand new

A transformation that happens over time

Is the product of a renewed mind

Why do I do all the things that I do

When I want to do what is right?

Change this wicked heart of mine

Let me walk with you in the new life.

Create in me a clean heart

Place your spirit deep inside

Capture every thought

'Til there's no place left to hide

No place to hide from you

So why do I do all the things that I do

When I want to do what is right?

Change this wicked heart of mine

Let me walk with you in the new life.

Why do I do all the things that I do

When I want to do what is right?

Change my heart, renew my mind

Let me walk with you in the new life.
