Forgiving You

I have spent a lifetime trying to forget about you
 I took pride in my mind, spending my whole life without you
 But things are different, the end draws near
 Soon deliverance will take you away from here
 And I am left to pray for peace through my remaining years
 I am willing to try forgiving you
 But I pray that you'll meet me halfway
 When I'm missing you, I'll be living proof
 That you spoke the truth when I heard you say
 That you love me
 That you love me
 What a shame, if we had never cleared the air between us
 Guess we'll know real soon if what you thought was true
 about Jesus
 What a difference when love draws near
 Now forgiveness is whispered into our ears
 And I am left to pray for peace through my remaining years
 I am willing to try forgiving you
 But I pray that you'll meet me halfway
 When I'm missing you, I'll be living proof
 That you spoke the truth when I heard you say
 That you love me
 That you love me, yeah
 And I can finally say that I love you
 May love undo the things for which I must forgive you
 May love continue to unfold within you
 And I pray that love will bring you peace from memories
 Of times when I refused to speak
 The stubborn vows I used to keep
 But now the oath I choose is peace
 So rest, my anger's put to sleep
 No more bondage, our souls are loosed and free
 And I love you, oh
 I love you
 I am willing to try forgiving you
 But I pray that you'll meet me halfway
 When I'm missing you, I'll be living proof
 That you spoke the truth when I heard you say
 That you love me
 That you love me, oh
 I can finally say that I love you
 And I love you, ooo
