jars of clay
forgive me
Well, I tried to figure out all the mysteries of love I made confessions under pure duress I thought that everything was meaningless As far as the eye could see As deep as the heart could be Such an impossibility that you would forgive me Forgive me I wasted another year, waiting for the words For things to be more clear And now I'm so afraid, if I find the words to say Have I lost you anyway? For every town there is a crier Like a thief in every choir And when I think of the mistakes I've made All my transgressions on a big parade As far as the eye can see As deep as the heart can be Such an impossibility that you would forgive me Forgive me I wasted another year, waiting for the words For something to be more clear And now I'm so afraid, if I find the words to say Have I lost you anyway? As far as the eye can see As deep as the heart can be Such an impossibility that you would forgive me I wasted another year, waiting for the words For something to be more clear But now I am afraid, if I find the words to say Have I lost you anyway? 'Cause I've found the words to say I've been thinking them for days And now I'm begging you to stay
