Forgive my heart, which loved you so, Forgive the times I didn't know, The worth you held, the light you gave, Forgive me for the life you saved. A photo pulled, a silent tear, For vanished days now ever near. Your eyes, your hands, a haunting grace, Why must this pain still fill this space? Forgive me for not seeing then, The depths of love I feel again. For wanting you, for all I craved, My life for yours, completely enslaved. Forgive my heart, which loved you so, Forgive the times I didn't know, The worth you held, the light you gave, Forgive me for the life you saved. Forgive my love, for what is past! Forgive me that the pain still lasts. I spent myself, I gave my all, And you to me were never small. So many tender arms embraced, The sweet approach of lips, time chased. These fleeting days like shadows went, Leaving just echoes, time misspent. Opinions whispered, judgments cast, On memories that forever last. Of what we had, what we have lost, A fate decided at some cost. Forgive my heart, which loved you so, Forgive the times I didn't know, The worth you held, the light you gave, Forgive me for the life you saved. Forgive my love, for what is past! Forgive me that the pain still lasts. I told you often, "You're so fair," And gazed into your eyes with care. "How beautiful you are!" I'd sigh, Now just a pain that makes me cry. A silly waste, a foolish plight, One of life's losses, dark as night. Ashamed to say I doubted fate, "That faith escaped me, sealed by hate" Forgive my heart, which loved you so, Forgive the times I didn't know, The worth you held, the light you gave, Forgive me for the life you saved. Forgive my love, for what is past! Forgive me that the pain still lasts.
