Forgive me darling for all I've done wrong
I tried my best just couldn't wait that long
I want you to know that I wanted to stay

I wanted to hold on for just one more day
But an airplane was waiting I just had to go
So now all that's left are your little notes
Forgive me darling

Got a box of your letters packed under my coats
Can't stand to read them though I keep coming close
I check every day to see if you wrote

You never do so I've given up hope
A lifetime of waiting is a lifetime too long
So I'll keep on searching for a place to belong
Forgive me darling
