Forgiven

Couldn't save you from the start Love you so it hurts my soul Can you forgive me for trying again Your silence makes me hold my breath Oh time has passed you by Oh, for so long I've tried to shield you from the world Ooh, you couldn't face the freedom on your own Here I am left in silence You gave up the fight You left me behind All that's done's forgiven You'll always be mine I know deep inside All that's done's forgiven I watched the clouds drifting away Still the sun can't warm my face I know it was destined to go wrong You were looking for the great escape To chase your demons away Oh, for so long I've tried to shield you from the world Oh, you couldn't face the freedom on your own And here I am left in silence You gave up the fight You left me behind All that's done's forgiven You'll always be mine I know deep inside All that's done's forgiven I've been so lost since you've gone Why not me before you? Why did fate deceive me? Everything turned out so wrong Why did you leave me in silence? You gave up the fight You left me behind All that's done's forgiven You'll always be mine I know deep inside All that's done's forgiven --- Forgiven - Within Temptation
