I DON'T WANNA
TALK ABOUT WHO'S
RIGHT OR WRONG
WE DON'T HAVE THAT
LUXURY OF TIME
FOR EVERY BITTER WORD
THAT'S HEARD ANOTHER
TEARDROP FALLS
AND SPILLS OVER
TILL IT HITS
THE BOTTOM LINE
FORGIVENESS
SUCH A SIMPLE
WORD TO SAY
BUT I'VE BEEN WITNESS
TO HOW EASY
PRIDE GETS IN THE WAY
WE'RE ALL IN THIS
OH AND EVERY DAY
I PRAY
FOR YOU
FOR ME
FORGIVENESS
WE WRESTLE WITH
OUR CONSCIENCE
AND WE TRY TO JUSTIFY
OUR RIGHTEOUS
INDIGNATION TO THE END
SO WE STAND
UPON OUR ISLANDS
AND RIGHT THERE
IN OUR HANDS
IS A MESSAGE
IN A BOTTLE
WE SHOULD SEND
FORGIVENESS
SUCH A SIMPLE
WORD TO SAY
BUT I'VE BEEN WITNESS
TO HOW EASY
PRIDE GETS IN THE WAY
WE'RE ALL IN THIS
OH AND EVERY DAY
I PRAY
FOR YOU
FOR ME
FORGIVENESS
THAT CLOCK
UPON THE WALL
IT'S TICKIN' FOR US ALL
ONLY OUR HEARTS
CAN CALL A TRUCE
OH FORGIVENESS
SUCH A SIMPLE
WORD TO SAY
BUT I'VE BEEN WITNESS
TO HOW EASY
PRIDE GETS IN THE WAY
WE'RE ALL IN THIS
OH AND EVERY DAY
I PRAY
FOR YOU
FOR ME
FORGIVENESS
FOR YOU
FOR ME
FORGIVENESS
