Once I met a girl who asked me why
Why I sing and raise my voice up high?
Why I sing 'bout the pain, darkness and the sorrow
when tears and betrayal could fade away?

And she said
"Forgiveness, forgiveness, forgiveness
Forgiveness, forgiveness, forgive"

Why don't you sing aboutthe moon, the sun?
How all the people on this earth are one
Just sing about love, the joy when you miss somebody
And you'll see, you'll receive all that you need

And she said
"Forgiveness, forgiveness, forgiveness
Forgiveness, forgiveness, forgive"
Forgiveness, forgiveness, let's all embrace tomorrow
Forgiveness, and we'll survive today

You'll see, time will heal, love will heal
Your song will heal
You'll see, time will heal, love will heal
Your song will heal

Just sing about the feeling you're alive
We always do our best, at least we try
Forgiveness, forgiveness, let's all embrace tomorrow
Forgiveness, and we'll survive today

Just sing about the feeling you're alive
We always do our best, at least we try
Forgiveness, forgiveness, let's all embrace tomorrow
Forgiveness, and we'll survive today

Forgiveness, and we'll survive today
