D-DU-UDU
I got the call today, that I didn't wanna hear but I knew that it would come
An old, true friend of ours was talkin on the phone, she said she'd found someone
And I thought of all the bad luck, and the struggles we went through
How I'd lost me, and you'd lost you
What are these voices outside life's open doors
Make us go out for containers and beg for something more
I'm learning to live without you now and I miss ya sometimes
And the more I know, the less I understand
And all the things I thought I knew, I'm learning again
(Chorus)
I've been trying to get down to the heart of the matter
When my week gets weak and my thoughts have been scattered
But I think its about Forgiveness, Forgiveness
Even if, Even if you don't love me any more
And these times are so uncertain, there's a yearning undefined, and people filled with rage
We all need a little tenderness, how can love survive, in such a placeless age?
The trust and self assurance that lead to happiness
All the silly things we kill, I guess
No pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms
And the work I've put between us, you know it doesn't keep me warm
I'm learning to live without you now, and I miss ya baby
And the more I know, the less I understand
All the things I thought I'd figured out, I have to learn again
Repeat Chorus
But if there's people in your life who's come and gone
They let you down, you know they hurt your pride
You'd better put it all behind you baby, cuz life goes on
And you canned up all that anger, it'll eat you up inside
Repeat Chorus 2x
Forgiveness, Forgiveness, forgiveness, forgiveness, forgiveness, forgiveness
Even if you dont love me anymore
