Barbra Streisand
Sweet Forgiveness
[Verse 1]
4 AM, another sleepless night
Each weary word I write, a tear on the page
Here I am, asking myself again
Why does this love we're in stay just out of reach?

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me why we never get the balance
Just exactly right, we scream across the distance
From our separate sides
And wonder, when did passion turn to pride?

[Chorus]
You and I
Two lives, one heart
Believing every day
Will be thе day when sweet forgiveness starts

[Verse 2]
I need you to lеt me stand alone
To call my life my own, yet stand by my side
I know I don't let you know enough
Don't let love show enough, don't let you be strong

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, tell me why we never get surrender
Just exactly right, we never can remember
There's another side
That lies between the passion and the pride
[Chorus]
You and I
Two lives, one heart
One leap of faith away
We stay until the sweet forgiveness starts

[Bridge]
Walls, we built these very walls
Where my shadow falls alone
And doors, between my life and yours
Open them before everything is gone
Sweet forgiveness, touch me before dawn

[Outro]
You and I
Two lives, one heart
We keep the dream alive
Surviving till the sweet forgiveness starts
