Lyrics
Forgive Me, I Had To Go
©2007 Tim Wheeler
VERSE 1
Last time I saw you, you didn’t like me much
Can’t say that I blame you
Spent most of my life working hard and such
Before I knew the time flew by
The day I left you, I made your mother cry
Didn’t mean to hurt you, but I had to say goodbye
CHORUS
Forgive me I had to go
Could’ve been such good friends
Sorry, I did not know
That’s how it had to end
You’ll understand someday
‘til then I pray you know
Didn’t wanna leave that way
Forgive me, I had to go
VERSE 2
Been 13 years and I bet you didn’t know this
But, I’ve been checking in on you
Know you got married, that you have 3 kids
and you’re a real good Daddy, too
You do the things with them I never thought to do
Son, I hope you know, [I’m proud of you](optionally spoken)
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Grew to be the man I dreamed you would become
Don’t you see God had a plan that day he took me home
Final CHORUS
Forgive me, I had to go
We could’ve been such good friends
Remember you never know
When the gift of life may end
I’ll shake your hand again someday
‘til then I pray you know
Didn’t wanna leave that way
Forgive me, I had to go
Didn’t wanna leave that way
Forgive me, I had to go
