can you forgive me again?
i don't know what i said
but i didn't mean to hurt you

i heard the words come out
i thought that i would die
it hurts so much to hurt you
then you were mad at me
you're not shouting anymore
you're silently...broken
i'd give anything now
to kill those words for you
each time i say something i regret
i cry, i don't wanna lose you
but somehow i know that you will never
leave me...yeah

'cause you were made for me
somehow i'll make you see
how happy you make me...oh
i can't live this life
without you by my side
i need you to survive
so stay...with me
you look in my eyes
and i'm screaming inside
that i'm suffering

will you forgive me again?
you're my one true friend
and i never meant to hurt you

    General Comment:This song makes me want to cry when I listen to it... <3 Am I the only one who's noticed she sings "Rob" and isn't that the name of her brother?

    General Comment:Basically this song to me could be about any relationship you could have ( sibling, friend or even parent )
    Something you mistakingly say to them hurts more than you thought it would and you would do anything to make it up to them, because you have the emotional guilt inside, and to relieve the pain your feeling for it, you ask the person to forgive you.
    But sadly, you can forgive but cannot ever forget :(

    General Comment:Mwah, don't like it actually. This is the only song I skip immediately. It's so sweet. Too sweet. I'm sorry, forgive me, I don't want to hurt you... It's kinda cliché. But yeah, that's just my opinion. It would be great of course to make op a huge fight. But just to listen it when I'm sitting in my room: Nah!

    General Comment:This song is about soulmates, about REAL love. When you find that one true love, their pain is your pain, and things may get tough but deep down you always know that the bond between you can't be broken and they'll always be there for you. People make mistakes but when you truly love you love them and stick with them because you can't be whole without them. It's such a deep song, about something that is pretty rare these day.
