Swee t forgi veness that's what you gi ve to me
When you hol d me close
And you say: "That's all ove r"
You don't go l ooking back
You d on't hold the cards to sta ck
'Cause you mean w hat you say
S weet forg iveness you h elp me see
I'm not nea r as bad
As I sometimes appe ar to be
When you h old me clo se
And y ou sa y: "That's all ov er
"And I still l ove you"
There's no way that I could make up
For those ang ry words I said
Som etimes it gets to h urting
And the p ain goes to my h ead
S weet forgiv eness dear G od above
I say we al l deserve
A taste of this k ind of love
Someone who'll ho ld onto our h and
And w hispe r: "I un derstand
And I s tilllll loooove yo u"
