Forgiveness

(album: Been A While - 2016)

There was something inside
that you set to fall
Hit me like a hammer blow
when the music stops and the chairs are gone
and you called me out and I followed you
you held me like a child's balloon
as the light came down in a empty room

All we have is forgiveness
always walking a fine line
to a love that would mean less
or would last us a lifetime
all this talking of weakness
and the looks from the sideline
all we have is forgiveness
that I'm trying to find.

let the candles burn, let the colours fade
that was just a part you played
while the bullets flew and the fires raged
I know you keep your cards behind you
for evidence and trials
don't you let the search lights blind you.

All we have is forgiveness
always walking a fine line
to a love that would mean less
or would last us a lifetime
all this talking of weakness
and the looks from the sideline
all we have is forgiveness
that I'm trying to find.

Even though we can't go backwards
I will always be there for you
Even though we can't go backwards

All we have is forgiveness
always walking a fine line
to a love that would mean less
or would last us a lifetime
all this talking of weakness
and the looks from the sideline
all we have is forgiveness
that I'm trying to find.
