Forgiveness
Another recital has come and gone
and I didn't see you there
I studied every face walking through the door
and I search through every chair
Where were you when I needed you
to hug me and wipe the tears away
to remind me how strong I was
when I was having a weak day
It was hard to understand what I did wrong
cause I was your baby girl at the start
But things started to change and you didn't have time
that's what really broke my heart
But holding this pain only hurts me
I'm still angry but I gotta let go
cause I'll stay stuck as that same little girl
and she'll never get the chance to grow
It might take some time to get through this
and even though I'll have moments when I cry
I forgive you today and forever
and I'll love you til the day that I die
