Forgiveness Is the Only Way Out

At first I thought I would be okay--
That I could make it through another day.
But I knew I couldn't;
I could only pray...

My heart was broken
And I knew it wouldn't heal,
But I had to know
If you couldn't feel what I feel.

You said "forever"
I believed what you said...
Pity me...
I vowed my life with a bent head.

I can forgive you
But I'll never forget
For all of my life
For you it was spent.

Now that we've parted,
I can raise my head high;
I can lift my broken wings
And soar through the sky.

With one thought in mind,
I can truly say,
I've always loved you
Day by day...
