AFTER ALL

Verse 1
Life is sweet. Times are good.
Things are going the way they should.
It's a far cry from those crazy days we put each other through.
Dedicated to the one I love now.
I thank God for being here some how.
Still, out of the blue sometimes I think about you.
Lift
It's not a wanting thing.
But the comfort closure brings.
Chorus
After all the shattered dreams, the tears.
Hurtful words ringing in our ears
Promises broken. Lost years. Our burn and fall.
Though we moved on with our lives.
The guilt lingers deep inside.
Forgive me. I forgive you. After all.
Bridge
After all the things I didn't say.
After all I didn't do.
After all the things I did not know.
I apologize to you.
Instrumental (Sax)
Verse 2
The days were long. The nights sad.
Everything good we had turned bad.
But now we're far away from the way things used to be.
I hope this time you find true love.
And he's the one you think mostly of.
Still like a lone breeze, sometimes you'll think about me.
Lift
It's not a wanting thing.
But the comfort closure brings.
Chorus
After all the shattered dreams, the tears.
Hurtful words ringing in our ears
Promises broken. Lost years. Our burn and fall.
Though we moved on with our lives.
The guilt lingers deep inside.
Forgive me. I forgive you. After all.
Tag
Please forgive me. I forgive you. After all. After all.
Forgive me. I forgive you. After all.
