lyrics

Down in the water / by the riverside
Many have wandered / many have died
I walked there lately / I did not stay long
I left my life there / I have moved on

I had done nothing / never held a gun, or
Lifted my voice up / I was too young.
But the battle raged and / I was called to fight
To wrest, to rage, to / never see the light

And did you know how long I waited for that day?
Did you know how strong I longed to hear you say…
And could you ever know the good I could’ve done?
Could you ever know? Could you ever know…?
Oh oh oh…

I was a baby / I was a child
Now that I’m gone / remember me a while
I wanted freedom / I wanted life
Now I want nothing / keep your blood-stained knife

And did you know how long I waited for this day?
Did you know how bad I longed to hear you say…
And could you ever know the good I could’ve done?
Could you ever know? Could you ever know…?

But I forgive you for the wrongs that you have done to me
And I forgive you for the pain that you have felt
And I forgive you for there’s nothing else that I can do
Except for leave you to yourself
