YOUR FORGOTTEN WAR

There aren’t any lights shining in the window
I’ve watched for their reflection all night long
My phone has been a traitor with it’s silence
Am I the forgotten lyrics in your song…
Your friends all tell me that they haven’t seen you
But I guess that’s what a real friend would say
I was wanting to tell you that I’m sorry 
I never should have treated you that way…


~~~*Chorus*~~~
Oh…
Let me repair the damage
Wind the thread back on the spool
Sew up the wounds inflicted
Please don't leave me here the fool
Dying to know where you are
Tell me can we be restored
All open wounds become scars
Will I be…
Your forgotten war
~~*~~

There’s really no excuse that I can give you

But I can promise, I won’t hurt you again
It’s hard to believe that I can’t find you 
That I may not get the chance to make amends
I want you to know I’ll always love you
Though my actions conflict with what I say
If there was one thing that I could do over
It would be the way I treated you today


~~~*Chorus*~~~
Oh…
Let me repair the damage
Wind the thread back on the spool
Sew up the wounds inflicted
Please don't leave me here the fool
Dying to know where you are
Tell me can we be restored
All open wounds become scars
Will I be…
Your forgotten war
~~*~~

All my life I’ve hated wicked women

I’ve wondered why those guys put up with them
When you left, I stared into the mirror
Then I prayed you’d be like those other men


~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~
We’ve worked hard to get we are
For no good reason I attacked your heart
I’m not sitting here feeling sorry for myself
But it’s Hell…
I wonder of your wounds and scars
Knew right away I’d gone too far
And I don't want to be the enemy to you
That's the truth
~~*~~

~~~*Chorus*~~~
Oh…
Let me repair the damage
Wind the thread back on the spool
Sew up the wounds inflicted
Please don't leave me here the fool
Dying to know where you are
Tell me can we be restored
All open wounds become scars
Will I be…
Your forgotten war
~~*~~
