Lyrics
Forgiving You Blues words and music by Yarrow Ann
©2006 Yarrow Ann Pellbring
(verse)
Don't tell me you're sorry
I'm sorry too
I gave you all my loving and I trusted you
But this game you've been playing we're both bound to lose
And I'm tired of singing these Forgiving You Blues
(verse)
Don't tell me you've changed
It's hard to believe you
When I think of all the changes you put me thru
I always believed you but you never were true
You give me no choice but to try and forget you
(chorus)
Forgive and forget you
What else can I do?
You're playing and I'm singing these Forgiving You Blues
(verse)
Don't tell me the same lies
You told me before
You'd hold me and promise not to hurt me no more
But the promises meant nothing once you'd walk out that door
I'd give you one more chance but it can't happen no more
(If I gave another chance, you'd only hurt me once more)
Forgive and forget you
What else can I do?
You're playing and I'm singing these Forgiving You Blues
