Sarah Mclachlan - Forgiveness lyrics

rate me

Loving lying enemy

I have seen your face before

Never thought again I’d see

Didn’t want to anymore

I remember your loving eyes

And the moonlit kiss

The evening lullabies I will truly miss

Through the years we had it all

Midnight whispers, the midday calls

This house of call it had to fall

And you ask for forgiveness

You’re asking too much

I have sheltered my heart in a place you can’t touch

Don’t believe when you tell me your love is real

Because you don’t know much about heaven boy

If you have to hurt to feel

Every time I see you

I can’t help but look away

All along I had believed everything you’d say

When I look now I know I’ve seen your face before

Don’t want your deceiving smile

Standing at my door

And I don’t care what people say

I’m ready now to face this day

And you ask for forgiveness

You’re asking too much

I have sheltered my heart in a place you can’t touch

Don’t believe when you tell me your love is real

Because you don’t know much about heaven boy

If you have to hurt to feel

Because you don’t know much about heaven boy

if you have to hurt

And you ask for forgiveness

You’re asking too much

I have sheltered my heart in a place you can’t touch

Don’t believe when you tell me your love is real

Because you don’t know much about heaven boy

If you have to hurt to feel
