Lyrics Forgiven - Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals

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
