For Blue Skies by Strays Don’t Sleep

What you couldn’t do I will
I forgive you
I’ll forgive you
I’ll forgive you
I forgive you

For blue blue skies
For blue blue skies
For blue blue skies
For blue blue skies
I’ll forgive you

I’ve tried everything. From being passive, to passive aggressive, to confronting you, to putting you on short leash, to kicking you away so you roam free, and then pulling you back because I couldn’t breathe when I was walking to class with this ache in my throat that often throbbed in the chest.

In the eight months we’ve been together, I’ve tried all these roles I never knew I was capable of — the runaway girlfriend, the future spouse, the extremely patient one, the shoulder to cry on, the catalyst for tears, the jealous girlfriend — now for once, I’m going to try and forget what went wrong. Or forgive.

Either one.

What you couldn't do I will
I forgive you
I'll forgive you
I'll forgive you
I forgive you 

For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
I'll forgive you
