I’ve forgiven you for being wrong
Though you put up quite a fight,
So in return I’m asking you
To forgive my being right.
Yes, it took you quite a while
But you finally saw the light.
I’ve forgiven you for being wrong
Can you forgive my being right?
The issue is now in the past
It’s lost its savage bite.
I’ve forgiven you for being wrong
Please forgive my being right.
Let’s put the past behind us
To be consigned to history.
I’ve forgiven you my friend,
Can you do the same for me?
