Forgive You Songtext
von Ed Ackerson

Payday′s come and gone
And it's hard to gauge
How long ′til you'll meet the ground again
Thoughts that crowd your mind
Wrinkling your brow
I know that you want the truth released
But babe, I'm not your priest

But I′ll forgive you
I′ll forgive you
If you need me to

Now the city's closed
Shadows start to call
Follow you like memories long forgot
What you′re trying to leave
Is not about the walls
Or the sidewalk that you're stumbling down
You lost your future in this town


But I′ll forgive you
I'll forgive you
If you need me to
I′ll believe you
I'll stay here with you
But I won't be you

Holding the bag
So forlorn, so forlorn
You chose to miss
The last bus home

The fog that blurs your words
And filters out the hurt
It′s gonna burn off again some day
′Til then, the fee is waived

But I'll forgive you
I′ll forgive you
If you forgive me too
I'll forgive you
I′ll stay here with you
But I won't be you
I′ll forgive you
I'll forgive you
If you need me to
