I Forgive You Lyrics

You, you've got a way of keeping me on my toes
You've got a way of thinking whatever you do goes
And I really don't mind 'cause you're keeping me amused
You treated my love to your god damn crazy moods
And I, I forgive you

I, I'm gonna miss
Watching you while you sleep
'Cause that was the only time I ever found some peace
I used to believe that it was me who was insane
But now I take it back 'cause compared to you I'm okay
And I, I forgive you

I could throw my cares away
Now I know how freedom tastes
And I thank you for the pain
'Cause now I can deal with anything
I foretold the break
Now that I finally broke away from you

You, you've got a way of keeping me on my toes

I forgive you for the truth
I liked you better when you lied
And I forgive you for being you
'Cause you were better when you faked every smile
And now you're knocking on my front door
That's what I've been living for
Excuse me while I laugh my ass off
And now you're knocking on my front door
That's what I've been living for
Excuse me while I laugh my ass off
And now you're knocking on my front door
That's what I've been living for
Excuse me while I laugh my ass off
I forgive you for your ways
Now that I finally got away

Between You And I

A Story To Tell Your Friends

Tell Me I'm a Wreck

Days of the Old

I could throw my cares away
Now I know how freedom tastes
And I thank you for the pain
'Cause now I can deal with anything
I foretold the break
Now that I finally broke away from you

You, you've got a way of keeping me on my toes

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Best quote ever

This song is pretty self explanatory. Now I finally see what we truly were. I asked but I didn't really want the answer. "I Forgive you for the truth, I liked you better when you lied." Its hard to explain. She wasn't happy with the relation ship they had but she didn't tell him how she felt She just kept it to herself the entire time having affairs of her own. And he's like dang this is not what I expected I thought everything was fine, but thank you for telling me the truth so that you would feel better even though you just crushed my soul. "I forgive you being you, You were better when you faked every smile." Now that I see what you truly felt, I liked you better before I even asked. "I forgive you for your ways now that I finally got away." I can't stay with you now. But I forgive you for all the bad things you've done to me now that we're done.
