Wings Of Forgiveness - India.Arie

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 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
