Forgive And Forget Lyrics - Kathy Mattea

I'm tired, so tired, it's time to give it up 

I've been draggin' his memory around long enough 

It's weighin' heavy like a stone around my neck 

I've got to find a way to forgive and forget 

Forgive and forget that's what I've got to do 

Forgive and forget all the hurt he's put me through 

I know the only way I'll lay my burdens down to rest 

Is if I can forgive and forget 

To live in peace, be free of the past 

I close my eyes and sweet-dreams is all that I ask 

But if I die and peace has not come yet 

Write on my stone, I tried to forgive and forget 

Forgive and forget that's what I've got to do 

Forgive and forget all the hurt he's put me through 

I know the only way I'll lay my burdens down to rest 

Is if I can forgive and forget 

Forgive and forget that's what I've got to do 

Forgive and forget all the hurt he's put me through 

I know the only way I'll lay my burdens down to rest 

Is if I can forgive and forget 

Yeah, I know the only way I'll lay my burdens down to rest 

Is if I can forgive and forget
