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