Forgive!

I still recall that silver night Your word 'Goodbye' - a sharpened blade Cold eyes, your shadow, fading sight Despair inside that wouldn’t fade

The words had frozen on my lips I let you go - I couldn’t see My soul turned ashes in eclipse You waited just to hear 'Forgive!'

Now I call for you Now I scream for you Now I beg for you!

Forgive for pain, for loneliness, for darkness Forgive for tears I was not worthy of Forgive my pride, my blinded madness While you kept loving like your final love

Forgive - I couldn’t say that you Were dearer than the breath I take Forgive - for all I put you through My black-and-white world - my mistake

I chase a dream that isn’t real Where softly you still call my name Where once again our hearts could feel Where I could hold you just the same

Now I call for you Now I scream for you Now I beg for you!

Forgive for pain, for loneliness, for darkness Forgive for tears I was not worthy of Forgive my pride, my blinded madness While you kept loving like your final love

Forgive for lies, for wasted days, for years Forgive for fear, for dreams that won’t come true Chained by my vows - through bitter tears But all my love was meant for you

And still, my heart beats just for you Only for you!
