LYRICS [Intro — Reflective Piano, Gentle Acoustic Guitar] [Verse 1 — Female Vocal] Sometimes I walk through memories I wish I'd left behind, Replaying all the moments That still trouble my mind. I hear the words I shouldn't have said, Remember roads I chose, And wonder how a heart can heal From all the hurt it knows. [Pre-Chorus] I've spent too long wishing I could turn the hands of time. But yesterday is gone now, Lord, And today is still mine. [Chorus — Soulful, Emotionally Expressive] I can't change yesterday, No matter how I pray. I can't undo the hurt I've caused Or take those words away. But I can bring my broken past And lay it at Your feet. Jesus, teach me how to walk In the grace You've given me. I can't change yesterday, But I don't have to stay The woman who kept turning From the truth along the way. With Your mercy as my guide, I'll let Your love reshape my life. I can't change yesterday, But I can change today with You. [Verse 2 — Female Vocal] I used to call it bad luck When my choices brought me pain. I blamed the world around me And repeated them again. But freedom came the moment I stopped running from the truth. I began to see the difference Between regret and something new. [Pre-Chorus] I cannot rewrite my story, But its ending isn't set. There's a future still before me, And a lesson I won't forget. [Chorus — Stronger Instrumentation] I can't change yesterday, No matter how I pray. I can't undo the hurt I've caused Or take those words away. But I can bring my broken past And lay it at Your feet. Jesus, teach me how to walk In the grace You've given me. I can't change yesterday, But I don't have to stay The woman who kept turning From the truth along the way. With Your mercy as my guide, I'll let Your love reshape my life. I can't change yesterday, But I can change today with You. [Instrumental — Expressive Electric Guitar Over Warm Piano and Acoustic Guitar] [Bridge — Quiet Confession, Gradually Building] Lord, I won't deny my choices. I won't pretend they caused no pain. I'll accept what I must carry And learn from my mistakes. I cannot change what happened, But I can choose what happens next. With Your wisdom in my heart, Lord, I'll walk a different path. [Final Chorus — Powerful, Hopeful Female Vocal] I can't change yesterday, But Your love has made a way. You can take these broken pieces And teach my heart to change. I will own the roads I've traveled, I will learn from where I've been. Jesus, give me strength to choose A better road again. I can't change yesterday, But tomorrow holds a choice. I can leave behind the silence, I can listen for Your voice. With Your mercy by my side, I'll keep walking toward the light. I can't change yesterday, But I can change today with You. [Outro — Piano and Acoustic Guitar, Gentle and Sincere] Yesterday is in Your hands. Tomorrow waits for me. Jesus, help me live today In the woman You want me to be.
