As soon as I opened up this week’s Song Lyric Sunday prompt and saw ‘Forgiveness’ I knew exactly what song to post here. GIven that I even name-checked this song just a few weeks ago in the first instalment of my Music Lexicon project, what else could it be but Bryan Adams’ ‘Please Forgive Me’?
Feels like the first kiss, it’s gettin’ better, baby
No one can better this…
Still holdin’ on, you’re still the one.
First time our eyes met, same feelin’ I get
Only feels much stronger, wanna love you longer
You still turn the fire on…So if you’re feelin’ lonely—don’t
You’re the only one I ever want.
I only wanna make it good
So if I love you a little more than I should…Please forgive me
I know not what I do.
Please forgive me
I can’t stop lovin’ you
Don’t deny me.
This pain I’m going through…
Please forgive me if I need you like I do.
Please believe me.
Every word I say is true…
Please forgive me
I can’t stop loving you
Still feels like our best times are together.
Feels like the first touch, still gettin’ closer, baby
Can’t get close enough.
Still holdin’ on, you’re still number one.
I remember the smell of your skin,
I remember everything,
I remember all your moves
I remember you, yeah!
I remember the nights, you know I still do.
So if you’re feelin’ lonely—don’t
You’re the only one I ever want.
I only wanna make it good
So if I love you a little more than I should…
Please forgive me
I know not what I do.
Please forgive me
I can’t stop lovin’ you
Don’t deny me
This pain I’m going through.
Please forgive me if I need you like I do
Oh, believe me.
Every word I say is true.
Please forgive me
I can’t stop loving you.
One thing I’m sure of is the way we make love.
And one thing I depend on is for us to stay strong.
With every word and every breath I’m prayin’
That’s why I’m sayin’…
Please forgive me
I know not what I do.
Please forgive me
I can’t stop lovin’ you.
Don’t deny me.
This pain I’m going through.
Please forgive me if I need you like I do.
Babe, believe me.
Every word I say is true.
Please forgive me if I can’t stop loving you.
Never leave me
I don’t know what I’d do.
Please forgive me
I can’t stop loving you,
Can’t stop loving you.
[Words by Bryan Adams and Robert John Lange]
Song Lyric Sunday: Forgiveness
the only deadhead in the hameau 
Bryan Adams is classic goodness. I love his voice so much! Thanks so much for sharing this one. I hadn’t heard it in a LONG time! 🙂
I love Bryan Adams! 🙂
Of course! I can’t believe I forgot about this one. Great choice for this week.
Classic Canadian anthem. I have been listening to Bryan Adams, as a Canadian kid, all my life.
