Ben Harper - Forgiven

Forgiven

I will wait like nothing; I have ever waited for
I will catch your tears from falling; until from my hands they poor

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

You shall be, you shall be, you shall be Forgiven
You shall be, you shall be, you shall be Forgiven
