[Verse 1]
I picked myself up off the ground
I had an epiphany, babe, a realization
Babe I knew that I couldn't stay down
I had to find a way to be brave

[Chorus]
I'll forgive you friend
Forgive me and we can be in love again

[Verse 2]
We was children, have lived our lives since then
I've grown strong enough and I got wise
Emptiness has opened up my eyes
Now I see that I want you back in my life

[Chorus]
I'll forgive you friend
Forgive me and we can be in love again

[Verse 3]
And if your heart thinks I'm a crock of shit
Then I must submit and you can follow it
And I will follow you, my love
I'll just be a friend
Although I know that means I'll never see you again
[Chorus]
I'll forgive you friend
Forgive me and we can be in love again

I'll forgive you friend
Forgive me

[Verse 4]
I'm not asking you to forget
I'm only asking to be forgiven
So keep your memories good or bad
And your head, I don't care about that
It's your heart I wanna live in

[Chorus]
I'll forgive you friend
Forgive me and we can be in love again

[Verse 1]
I picked myself up off the ground
I had an epiphany, babe, a realization
Babe I knew that I couldn't stay down
I had to find a way to be brave

[Chorus]
I'll forgive you friend
Forgive me and we can be in love again
I'll forgive you friend
Forgive me
