Forgiven
Ben Harper
Burn To Shine (1999)

I will wait like nothing
I have ever waited for
I will catch your tears from falling
Until from my hands they fall
You can leave me abandoned
I'll be here if you want 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
While 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 on 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
