Sweet Forgiveness (J’s remix)

4 a.m
Another sleepless night
Each weary word I write
A tear on the page

Here I am
Asking myself again
Why does this love we're in
Stay just out of reach?

Tell me why
We never get the balance just exactly right
We scream across the distance from our separate sides
And wonder, when did passion turn to pride?

I need you
To let me stand alone
To call my life my own
Yet, stand by my side

Oh, tell me why
We never get surrender just exactly right
We never can remember there's another side
That lies between the passion and the pride

You and I
Two lives, one heart
One leap of faith away
We stay until the sweet forgiveness starts

Walls, we built these very walls
Where my shadow falls alone
And doors between my life and yours
Opened then before
Everything is gone
Sweet forgiveness touch me before dawn

You and I
Two lives, one heart
We keep the dream alive
Surviving till the sweet forgiveness starts
