LYRICS

You walked into the room
with your nose up in the air
looking right on through me
like I wasn’t even there
I said honey can’t we make up
and get over this little spat
but when you turned away
I was afraid you would act like that
They say a savior died long time ago
for all that we do wrong, yea
if he can why can’t you...

CHORUS
Forgive me
I’m beggin’ please
Forgive me
Don’t make me get on my knees
Forgive me
Please
Just give me
some measure of dignity

They say sorry s’pposed to be the word
I’m so sorry that I hurt you
believe me when I ask you to

CHORUS

And if you will not say hello
and I will not say goodbye
then there’s only one thing
left to try so I never go

CHORUS

They say a savior died long time ago
for all that we do wrong, yea
if he can so can you
What's forgivin’ for...give me...
