I just want you to know
|
After everything that we´ve been through
|
I just want you to know
|
That I still love you
|
That I still love you
|
|
Had to go
|
Across the water
|
Just to find
|
What was here in my heart all along
|
Spend so much time
|
Trying to be right
|
That I was dead wrong
|
|
If Nelson Mandela can forgive his oppressors
|
Surely I can forgive you for your passion
|
|
You´re only human
|
Let´s shake free this gravity of resentment
|
And fly high, and fly high
|
You´re only human
|
Let´s shake free this gravity of judgment
|
And fly high on the wings of forgiveness
|
|
Had to run
|
To the arms of curiosity
|
Just to find
|
What was here in my life all along
|
I had found that the art of simplicity
|
Simply means making peace of your complexity
|
|
If Gandhi can forgive persecution
|
Surely you can forgive me for being so petty
|
|
I´m only human
|
Let´s shake free this gravity of resentment
|
And fly high, and fly high
|
You´re only human
|
Let´s shake free this gravity of judgment
|
And fly high on the wings of forgiveness
|
|
I´ve searched for romance
|
Flowers and affection
|
What I found is a lesson
|
Of what love really is
|
Found the game of love is
|
Not about how much you can take
|
In fact authentic love is about
|
How much you can give
|
|
After everything that we´ve been through
|
I just want you to know
|
That I still love you
|
I want you to know
|
That I forgive you
|
(Thank you for teaching me how to give)
|
And I wanna let you know how much you changed my life
|
I wanna let you know you taught me how to fly
|
And I wrote this song to tell you this
|
I´m better cuz you taught me how to give
|
|
I took a swim
|
In the sea of guilt and misery
|
To find myself in an island
|
In the middle of nowhere
|
In my solitude
|
I asked to know the highest truth
|
And what I was told
|
Is to let own self be true
|
|
If Jesus can forgive crucifixion
|
Surely we can survive and find resolution
|
|
Let´s keep it moving
|
Let´s shake free this gravity of resentment
|
And fly high, and fly high
|
You´re only human
|
Let´s shake free this gravity of judgment
|
And fly high, and fly high
|
Let´s keep it moving
|
Let´s shake free this gravity of commitment
|
And fly high on the wings of forgiveness
|
|
After everything that we´ve been through
|
I just want you to know
|
That I still love you
|
I want you to know
|
That I still love you
|
And I wanna let you know how much you changed my life
|
I wanna let you know you taught me how to fly
|
And I wrote this song to tell you this
|
I´m better cuz you taught me how to give
|
|
I still love you
|
I want you to know
|
I still love you
|
Want you to know
|
I still love you
|
(And I always will love you)
|
And I wanna let you know
|
I forgive you
|
I wanna let you know
|
That I still love you
|
Want you to know
|
I still love you
|
I just want you to know
|
I still love you
|
Want you to know
|
I still love you
|
Want you to know
|
I still love you
|
And I wanna let you know
|
I forgive you
|
I wanna let you know
|
I still love you
|
Want you to know
|
I still love you
|
