She comes to me in the night when loneliness Is too much to bear and she holds me close And she helps me forget You go steppin' out as she comes steppin' in Someday I'll be forgiven for this Cause you just ain't got the time that you used to Well you say you love me and deep inside hell I know you do So stop your crying now I'm already convinced that someday I'll be forgiven for this Yeah, and if I know you You won't have nothing to say You'll just clear the tears from your eyes Long enough to watch me walk away You won't curse or scream, no nothing that obscene You'll just tell yourself you never loved me anyway So tonight when you leave Put the light out on the porch Take anything that you want to keep and leave your key in the door And I don't want to hear you crying no tears that show regret Cause someday you'll be forgiven for this Oh, yeah, someday you'll be forgiven for this.
