Forgiven Lyrics by Skillet

The Platinum Collection

2009

[Verse 1]
Forgive me now cause I
Have been unfaithful
Don't ask me why, 'cause I don't know
So many times I've tried
But was unable
This heart belongs to you alone

[Chorus]
Now I'm in our secret place
Alone in your embrace
Where all my wrongs have been erased
You have forgiven
All the promises and lies
All the times I compromised
All the times you were denied
You have forgiven

[Verse 2]
Forgive me, I'm ashamed
I've loved another
I can't explain, 'cause I don't know
No one can take your place
And there is no other
Forever yours and yours alone

[Chorus]
Now I'm in our secret place
Alone in your embrace
Where all my wrongs have been erased
You have forgiven
All the promises and lies
All the times I compromised
All the times you were denied
You have forgiven

[Post-Chorus]
Ho-woah-woah
Ho-woah-woah
Ho-woah-woah
Ho-woah yeah, yeah!

[Bridge]
I get down on my knees
Feel your love wash over me
There will never be another
You're the only one forever
And you know
I'm yours alone
I'm in our secret place
Alone in your embrace

[Chorus]
Where all my wrongs have been erased
You have forgiven
All the promises and lies
All the times I compromised
All the times you were denied
You have forgiven
Ho-woah-woah
Ho-woah-woah
Ho-woah-woah
You have forgiven

[Outro]
Forgiven... (Forgiven, forgiven, forgiven, forgiven...)
