ACRES OF LIONS LYRICS

"Forgive And Forget"

This is so dangerous
Laying here like this
Searching for a pseudonym
A name for us that fits
But you turned the page again
Your bookmark moving further
To some sort of happy ends
That would make your days grow longer

Well I said I'm sorry but that never did us any good
Now did it?
So I took some pills to calm myself down and forget you altogether
Well I should’ve known better not to take your word as is
As the gospel, God’s honest truth, thinking you would save me soon
On a Sunday, bright and early, the morning bells chimed in
And I swear they helped me to forgive
And forget

Wasn’t until recently
I learned to speak more clearly
To sound it out phonetically
And listen to you in return
You said that faith was restored in people who believe in love
And understanding
But you never got what you needed out of this so you turned on your heels and ran

Well I should have known better and trusted your abilities
On your merit, scouts honor, your badge for everything
On a Sunday, bright and early
The morning bells chimed in
And I swear they helped me to forgive
I swear they helped me to forgive
I swear they helped me to forgive

If the choir sang your name
Would I learn to trust again?
If they choir sang your name
Would I learn to forgive and forget?
If the choir sang your name
Would I learn to trust again?
If they choir sang your name
Would I learn to forgive and forget?
