You hurt my feelings I cried a'lot I wrote this in my book my words are all I've got You did something I couldn't have done to you But I forgave you all the same Because thats what God would want me to do You screamed and yelled and blamed it on your past I listened in silence Hoping it wouldn't last I forgave you in spite of all you have done to me For forgiving is the least I can do For my soul to be free You hurt my children in their innocent hearts But I forgave you, like I always do To keep from tearing us apart Forgiving you seems to be an everyday ordeal And even though I try to smile Happy is not what I feel Forgiving you comes natural But one day, I'll walk away For I can only take so much and my love for you will fade
