[V1]
Forgive me now cause I
Have been unfaithful
Don't ask me why cause I don't know
So many times I've tried
But was unable
But this heart belongs to you alone
[Chorus]
Now I'm in our secret place
Alone in your embrace
Where all my wrongs have been erased
You have forgiven
All the promises and lies
All the times I compromise
All the times you were denied
You have forgiven
[V2]
Forgive me I'm ashamed
I've loved another
I can't explain cause I don't know
No one can take your place
And there is no other
Forever yours and yours alone
[Bridge]
Take me to our secret place
(We'll leave the world away)
I get down on my knees
Feel your love wash over me
There will never be another
You're the only one forever
And you know I'm yours alone
Forgive me now cause I
Have been unfaithful
Don't ask me why cause I don't know
But was unable
But this heart belongs to you alone
Now I'm in our secret place
Alone in your embrace
Where all my wrongs have been erased
You have forgiven
All the times I compromise
All the times you were denied
You have forgiven
Forgive me I'm ashamed
I've loved another
I can't explain cause I don't know
No one can take your place
And there is no other
Forever yours and yours alone
Take me to our secret place
(We'll leave the world away)
I get down on my knees
Feel your love wash over me
There will never be another
You're the only one forever
And you know I'm yours alone

Hm. Im surprised no ones commented on this one yet... anyways.
I like this song. It seems to have a very straighforward message to me. We do so many thingas that a normal person would hold against us, but God forgives us for our sins.
When he says Ive loved another, Ive always understood it as He's idolizing something (money ect.) and it's gotten in his way of God.
When it says Take me to our Secret place, Ive always thought it refered to either his own heart, or just worship in general.
I really like this song. Easy to understand, but still very Skillet. Im really loving their new album and hope they come out with more like it :D
yeah, skillet keeps getting better each year. deep meaning, christian ideas, bass guitar, and an awesome voice for singing rock make a beautiful combo.

@randisn1 yeah, I agree. At first I thought that it might be about a guy cheating on his girlfriend but then I realized that skillet is more of a Christian band than a love band so I started thinking. Then I came to the conclusion that it's about God, and I think that we all should be so thankful to have such a great God.

This song takes me back to the day I came back to Jesus after years running to alcohol or drugs for help with life. God is truly great to us.
this song is about a person going to heaven and facing god and explaining what he did and asking god for forgiveness.
it is a wonderful song and should be more popluar *sighe well, we cant get everything we want.
So I know that this song is about God. I know that it's about a person sinning and then going back to God. But for me, I have come up with another meaning. My boyfriend cheated on me, (I Have been unfaithful) (I've loved another) He asked me for forgiveness, (Forgive me now) He still loves me (But this heart belongs to you alone) And I gave him another chance, (All the promises and lies All the times I compromise All the times you were denied You have forgiven)
I'm not saying that this is the meaning. I just know that it could be taken that way if you REALLY waned to.
Well, God often calls us his Bride, so in a sense it is exactly about that. We've been unfaithful to the one we love, and we are asking forgiveness.
