I can see you're back, I'm so glad I let you keep the key I should have known when you finally came around town You'd think about me And my friends all said when you showed your face I should immediately kick you right out of my place They mean well but the things that my friends can't see Is that they're just my friends, they're not me So I say Chorus I'm gonna forgive you once again Cause you ain't done nothing to me That's such a terrible sin And it don't matter to me girl, where you've been I'm so glad to have you back here with me And I know what it means for you to be so free So I'm gonna forgive you once again
By now I should know 'Cause you're back, don't mean you're back to stay And I know you'd never use a door That didn't swing both ways And I think I can easily reconcile my mind To the thoughts that you and me might be wasting our time Or in fact, in the act I'll be left far behind With all my negatives weighed I must still decline and say I'm gonna forgive you once again Cause you ain't done nothing to me That's such a terrible sin And it don't matter to me girl, where you've been 'Cause your lovin's so good and so strong That it easily lasts all the time that you're gone So I'm gonna forgive you once again
