ForgivenessTell me why you hide your eyesIts no wonder why you can't embrace me, just can't face me now If you knew, walked in my shoes, but brother you haven't even tried To see the truth, open your eyes To see things from the other side How long have we shared this blood? You've been a friend to me since the elementary How could this come to be that we're common enemies? It's about time we rose above and buried this grudge you been carrying round How I've tried to make things right But still you turn your face and hide from my sight Is this the end, should we pretend that our friendship means nothing? Forgive and forget or you'll always regret the friendships that you lose Everyone makes a mistake, time to time, needs a break So be the bigger man and choose forgiveness Let he who is without sin cast the first stone If you can't learn to forgive, you'll end up alone Searching for the words to say "I'm sorry" Filled with such regret over these petty differences we had But these four syllables can mend: "I forgive you" Forgive and forget or you'll always regret the friendships that you lose Everyone makes a mistake, time to time, needs a break So be the bigger man and choose forgiveness Forgive and forget or you'll always regret the friendships that you lose Everyone makes a mistake, time to time, needs a break So be the bigger man and choose forgiveness We were born into this world Smiling, stumbling, stubborn fools Untainted by egotistical hatred All we have is each other's Love so let us cherish it and rise above Envy, greed and jealousy I'll forgive you, you forgive me What can put the kindness of a true friend to the test, forgiveness What can put a lonely, lamenting spirit to rest, forgiveness What can reunite a grandfather with his children, forgiveness What can put a broken home back together again, forgiveness So take another walk down the road, take another step down the road Take a another walk down the road, take a step on the road to forgiveness |
