Melissa Etheridge
Please Forgive Me
[Verse 1]
It's been so long since I've touched
So long since I wanted
Then you made me laugh
And my heart opened

[Verse 2]
I want you to find me charming and wise
I just want you to find me somewhere here inside
I barely know you, we've been sort of friends
So what if I called you and called you again?
What would I tell you? Where would I begin?

[Chorus]
Please forgive me
If I don't know what to do
It's an old fire
This familiar desire
But my skin is painfully new

[Verse 3]
There's a light in my window, it shines all night long
In the morning, my coffee is sweet but it's strong
I carefully reach out from behind these walls
I'll take a deep breath and give you a call
"Hello, how are you? Not much at all"
[Chorus]
Please forgive me
If I don't know what to do
It's an old fire
This familiar desire
But my skin is painfully new

[Bridge]
Lost in this hole
That has ripped through my soul
I unlock this secret inside
What should I think?
I've had too much to drink
As my mind and my body collide

[Chorus]
Please forgive me
If I don't know what to do
It's an old, old fire
This familiar desire
And my skin is painfully new

[Verse 1]
It's been so long since I've touched
It's been so long since I wanted
Then you made me laugh
And my heart opened
