Forgive Me
Apology in Melody: Jeffrey Chang's Heartfelt Plea for Forgiveness
Lyrics
I always think about what's the 1st thing that I’ll do
I often contemplate the first action that will cause emotional pain to you.
that will break your heart, that will drift us apart
I wonder what action might cause a rift between us, leading to heartache.
Cause I’ve seen it before and their smile always seem to fade after a while
Based on past experiences, I've witnessed that happiness tends to diminish over time for others in similar situations.
Who’ll be in denial?
Who will refuse to accept the truth of our situation?
I’ve never been good at asking for forgiveness
I struggle to seek forgiveness; it's not my forte.
Wonder if you’ll stay if I don’t know how to communicate
I fear if my inability to communicate properly might cause you to leave.
Would you be able to read between the lines
Can you understand my unspoken words, my feelings, just by sensing my silence?
just by listening to my silence
Perceive and comprehend my thoughts without explicit expression.
see what’s on my mind
Discern what's going on in my mind without me explicitly stating it.
Forgive me
I'm seeking forgiveness.
If I ever hurt you
If my actions have caused you pain, I ask for your forgiveness.
Forgive me
Seeking forgiveness if I've been dishonest.
If I’m caught in a lie
Asking for pardon if I've caused you pain.
Forgive me
Requesting forgiveness for any wrongdoing.
If I ever hurt you
Asking for your forgiveness if I've hurt you.
Forgive me
Seeking pardon for any errors I've made.
I want you by my side
Expressing the desire to have you remain close to me.
I’ve had teenage dreams to find somebody with whom
I've always desired to find someone with whom I can be myself without worry.
I can act a fool, tell me if it's you
Wanting confirmation if you're the person with whom I can be my true self.
cause I’m used to going for girls that I know shouldn’t be with me
I tend to pursue relationships with individuals who might not be the best match for me.
so if she wants to leave, I can just agree
If they choose to leave, I easily agree without resistance.
and I’ve never been good at asking for forgiveness
I'm not skilled at seeking forgiveness.
Wonder if you’ll stay if I don’t know how to communicate
Concerned that my difficulty in communication might lead to your departure.
Would you be able to read between the lines
Wondering if you can understand my unsaid emotions and thoughts.
just by listening to my silence
Perceive and understand my inner feelings through my silence.
see what’s on my mind
Comprehend what's occupying my thoughts without me explicitly stating it.
Forgive me
Asking for forgiveness.
If I ever hurt you
Requesting forgiveness for any hurt I've caused.
Forgive me
Seeking pardon if I've been dishonest.
If I’m caught in a lie
Asking for forgiveness if I've caused you pain.
Forgive me
Seeking forgiveness for any wrongdoing.
If I ever hurt you
Asking for your forgiveness if I've hurt you.
Forgive me
Seeking pardon for any errors I've made.
I want you by my side
Expressing the desire to have you stay close to me.
I know, I know, I know…
Repeated acknowledgment of awareness regarding the need for forgiveness.
