Sweet Forgiveness lyrics

[Verse]
Sweet forgiveness, that's what you give to me
When you hold me close
And you say: "That's all over."
You don't go looking back
You don't hold the cards to stack
Because you mean what you say

[Verse]
Sweet forgiveness, you help me see
I'm not near as bad
As I sometimes appear to be
When you hold me close
And you say: "That's all over
"And I still love you."

[Bridge]
There's no way that I could make up
For those angry words I said
Sometimes it gets to hurting
And the pain goes to my head

[Verse]
Sweet forgiveness, dear God above
I say we all deserve
A taste of this kind of love
Someone who'll hold our hand
And whisper: "I understand
"And I still love you."
