Forgive And Forget
All the trust
That I put in you
Has been crushed
Don't tell me god has just closed a door
To open a window
If there was an open window,
I wouldn't be here,
Lying on the floor in tears
'Cause a life without you
Is like a song with no music
A life without you
Is like a story with no words
And I can never find the right ones to say to you
Not when you look me in the eyes
Did you think that I'd get over you?
Did you think that I'd just laugh it off?
Did you think that I wouldn't,
Wouldn't accept your advances,
The almost-real late night romances?
Did you think I'd just forgive and forget,
Let everything go
You say let go of the past,
Well darling I have,
But how can you expect me to let go of what's happening now?
Just because you can look back
And not feel a thing
Doesn't mean that I don't feel anything when I look at you,
When you say my name
Don't say that you're,
Don't ask something of me
That I'll never be able to give
I'll never,
No,
No I'll never
Forgive you
And I'll never forget what almost happened
How is it that I'm the naive one
When you think I can just so easily get over you?
You said you knew me,
You said you can see past how I act
So much for that theory
It's not like you haven't lied to me before
What difference is one more?
Don't tell me I'll find a man
I've already found the one that I want
If I can't be with you,
Then I'd rather be alone
Did you think that I'd get over you?
Did you think that I'd just laugh it off?
Did you think that I wouldn't,
Wouldn't accept your advances,
The almost-real late night romances?
Did you think I'd just forgive and forget,
Let everything go
You say let go of the past,
Well darling I have,
But how can you expect me to let go of what's happening now?
Just because you can look back
And not feel a thing
Doesn't mean that I don't feel anything when I look at you,
When you say my name
Don't say that you're,
Don't ask something of me
That I'll never be able to give
I'll never,
No,
No I'll never
Forgive you
And I'll never forget what almost happened
I hope you don't expect me to believe that you're sorry
After every lie you've told me
I hope you don't expect me to trust you
You just stand there and watch me turn to ashes
I know that you're not sorry,
I know that you take pleasure from my pain,
But I still wish that you'd come over here and take it all away
Did you think that I'd get over you?
Did you think that I'd just laugh it off?
Did you think that I wouldn't,
Wouldn't accept your advances,
The almost-real late night romances?
Did you think I'd just forgive and forget,
Let everything go
You say let go of the past,

Don't say that you're,
Don't ask something of me
That I'll never be able to give
I'll never,
No,
No I'll never
Forgive you
And I'll never forget what almost happened
I remember the smiles,
And I remember the sweet things you would say to me
We'd talk every day
Every time we got the chance
You'd hold me close to you
Before we said goodbye
And even after everything,
I just can't say goodbye
It's not over,
It's not the end,
Not the end of you and me,
Not the end of all the things we were supposed to be
'Cause everything about you,
Everything that is you
Makes me happy
Did you think that I'd get over you?
Did you think that I'd just laugh it off?
Did you think that I wouldn't,
Wouldn't accept your advances,
The almost-real late night romances?
Did you think I'd just forgive and forget,

Don't ask something of me
That I'll never be able to give
I'll never,
No,
No I'll never
Forgive you
And I'll never forget what almost happened
You made me happy just to be alive
Everything was perfect
We were perfect,
Two halves of a whole
But I guess you never saw things the way I do
No,
No no I won't
I could never be with anybody else
I'd look at them,
And I'd wish it was you
Did you think that I'd get over you?
Did you think that I'd just laugh it off?
Did you think that I wouldn't,
Wouldn't accept your advances,
The almost-real late night romances?

I'll never,
No,
No I'll never
Forgive you
And I'll never forget what almost happened
How can I forgive you
When the wounds are forever open?
And how can I forget
When I hold it all so close to my heart?
What little is left of my heart
That I put in you
Has been crushed
Don't tell me god has just closed a door
To open a window
