At your bidding I fell fifty feet into salt water
I scrambled to hold on or be lost forever
You said it was for my own sake
And watched as I was swallowed in the wake
(Chorus)
I knew at once but still I'm so surprised
You threw that stone and it skipped a million times
How was I supposed to know I would end up in the undertow?
A weave of rope was hanging off the back of this freight liner
So I could catch myself and crawl up inside her
I woke and I was alive
Before I knew if I had survived
Chorus
I'll learn to forgive mistakes
And be forgiven for the ones I've made
I'll learn to forgive mistakes
And be forgiven for the ones I've made
Chorus
