Lyrics for Forgiven

I will wait like nothing I have ever waited for I will catch your tears from falling Until from my hands they pour You can leave me abandoned I'll be here if you walk back in Like the rest I have been branded Far beneath the skin So far beneath the skin You shall be, you shall be You shall be forgiven You shall be, you shall be You shall be forgiven Here I have been standing But the time has come and gone I tried singing to you But you turned my words to stone Here I have been waiting It seems for quite a while Changed all my reflections But inside still just a child But inside still just a child You shall be, you shall be You shall be forgiven You shall be, you shall be You shall be forgiven These eyes weren't made for crying This love wasn't made to waste These arms weren't made for battle But to share in your embrace But to share in your embrace You shall be, you shall be You shall be forgiven You shall be, you shall be You shall be forgiven You shall be, you shall be You shall be forgiven, yeah You shall be, you shall be forgiven
