[Verse 1]
Can you forgive me for not loving you?
The longer I live the harder to hold the truth
That I turned away each time you needed me
And there were promises made that I never planned to keep

[Chorus]
I know I'm late but I'm asking you anyway
To forgive me for not loving you
Forgive me for not loving you

[Verse 2]
It's not an excuse but it's something that I was taught
See I was like you, my father's afterthought
I never believed that I could earn his love
Now I can see that he runs through my blood

[Chorus]
I know I'm late but I'm asking you anyway
To forgive me for not loving you
Forgive me for not loving you

[Bridge]
Time lost those lines I crossed
Left so much more I'm sorry for
[Outro]
I know I'm late but I'm asking you anyway
To forgive me for not loving you
Forgive me for not loving you
Forgive me
Can you forgive me for not loving you?
