I Forgive You

(album: The Woman I Am - 2013)

I've been carrying around this pain
I've been dragging it like a chain
A million tons of steel

This hurt is drowning me inside
It's like an ocean deep and wide
And you were and anchor pulling me down
Pulling me down

And I've cursed your name
I've tried to numb the pain
There's no whiskey, there's no pills
To change the way it feels

And I've prayed and prayed
For it to go away
There's only one thing left for me to do
I forgive you

I learned I had to set it free
Hating you was only hurting me
Like poison

I had to let go of the dream
That our past could ever be
Anything but what it was
Any different that it was

And I've cursed your name
I've tried to numb the pain
There's no whiskey, there's no pills
To change the way it feels

And I've prayed and prayed
For it to go away
There's only one thing left for me to do
I forgive you

I forgive you

And I've cursed your name
I've tried to numb the pain
There's no whiskey, there's no pills
To change the way it feels

And I've prayed and prayed
For it to go away
There's only one thing left for me to do
The only thing for me to do
Is forgive you
