Forgiveness

Loving, lying enemy I have seen your face before Never thought again I'd see Didn't want to anymore I remember your loving eyes And the moonlit kiss The evening lullabies I will truly miss Through the years we had it all The midnight whispers, the midday calls This house of cards, it had to fall And you ask for forgiveness You're asking too much I have sheltered my heart in a place you can't touch Don't believe when you tell me your love is real 'Cause you don't know much about heaven, boy If you have to hurt to feel Every time I see you, I can't help but look away All along I had believed everything you'd say When I look now I know I've seen your face before I don't want your deceiving smile, standing at my door And I don't care what people say I'm ready now to face this day 'Cause I have lost you along the way And you ask for forgiveness You're asking too much I have sheltered my heart in a place you can't touch I don't believe when you tell me your love is real 'Cause you don't know much about heaven, boy If you have to hurt to feel 'Cause you don't know much about heaven, boy If you have to hurt To ask for forgiveness You're asking too much I have sheltered my heart in a place you can't touch I don't believe when you tell me your love is real 'Cause you don't know much about heaven, boy If you have to hurt to feel --- Forgiveness - Sarah McLachlan
