For Angela Herzberg
Lyrics
You chose to take the law into your own hands
you should have let me know
I had a better plan
Theres no way to turn time back now
though I would sell my soul
to find a way how
Baby I didn't want to see
That You had truly given up on me
Its still so hard to believe
you've gone and left me this lonely
Lost out in the deep dark sea
how do I face this sad reality
chorus
I know you've earned your wings
While I'm still workin on what might be
I just didn't want to see
that you had truly given up on me
I'm learning to forgive you
for givin up on me
forgive you
I've forgiven you
so crazy how you can feel someone slippin away
you try so hard but ya can't find the right words to say
Just Goes to show How much I know
I always saw the future with us growin old
Wish I could ask you one last thing
whats this life without you standing here beside me
How am I supposed to carry on
when the best I ever had is gone
How am I supposed to carry on
when the best I ever had is gone
I know you've earned your wings
While I'm still workin on what might be
I just didn't want to see
that you had truly givin up on me
Baby I forgiven you
Have you forgiven me
Baby I've forgiven you
For givin up on me
Forgive you
I've forgiven you
Forgive you
I've forgiven you
Forgive you
Baby I've forgiven you
Its not somethin I was sure I'd be able to do
but I can honestly say
I've forgiven you
Forgive you
Baby, I've forgiven you
