forgive and forget
[Verse 1]
Hope I'm not calling too late
We haven't talked much since I got to L.A.
Are things in town still the same?
I've got so much I could say
But we don't speak, blame it on the time change
I hope that you're still okay
[Pre-Chorus]
But I'm still
Trading time with you for neon lights
Every day I go a little more blind
And what if it's a waste of my life?
And oh-oh, ooh
[Chorus]
If it all burned to the ground
Would you see me different?
Broke all the bridges I found
Could I come back innocent?
Would you be standing there by my side
And tell me everything would still be fine?
If this all ends in regret
Could you forgive and forget?
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
(Forgive and forget)
Ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
Could you forgive and forget?
[Verse 2]
"Don't lose yourself", said I won't
Now I don't think I ever wanna come home
I break your heart through the phone
But I just wanna tell you about
The new friends I still hardly know
How the sun sets different on the west coast
But I know it hurts, so I don't
[Pre-Chorus]
But I'm still
Trading time with you for neon lights
Every day I go a little more blind
And what if it's a waste of my life?
And oh-oh, ooh
[Chorus]
If it all burned to the ground
Would you see me different?
Broke all the bridges I found
Could I come back innocent?
Would you be standing there by my side
And tell me everything would still be fine?
If this all ends in regret
Could you forgive and forget?
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
(Forgive and forget)
Ooh, oh-ooh, oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
Could you forgive and forget?
[Chorus]
If it all burned to the ground
Would you see me different?
Broke all the bridges I found
Could I come back innocent?
Would you be standing there by my side
And tell me everything would still be fine?
If this all ends in regret
Could you forgive and forget?
