forgive you

Leon Bridges

Did I not love enough
to keep your attention on and on?
Am I the stupid one for doing everything that I did for us?

I put a pillow under your hair
Gave you tender love and my care
And I didn t make it a thing
ya mama didn t know that I was there
I tried to swallow my pride
When you left me lonely outside
And I didn t know you would never show
you re so comfortable with white lies
Looking like a fool what else could I do
after all we ve been through it still hurts

But I forgive you though my friends tell me not to
I forgive you even when it s so hard to

When we are good we re great
But I couldn t keep on carrying on this way
Won t ever be the same
But I d rather know you re better off
than when you left us

I put a pillow under your hair
Gave you tender love and my care
And I didn t make it a thing
ya mama didn t know that I was there
I tried to swallow my pride
When you left me lonely outside
And I didn t know you would never show
you re so comfortable with white lies
Looking like a fool what else could I do
after all we ve been through it still hurts

But I forgive you though my friends tell me not to
I forgive you even when it s so hard to
Maybe we can get together someday
But I want you to know we re okay, we re okay
But I want you to know we re okay, we re okay

I forgive you though my friends tell me not to
I forgive you even when it s so hard to
I had to, yeah
Maybe we can get together someday
But I want you to know we re okay, we re okay
But I want you to know we re okay, we re okay
