It's a year since you are gone
Forgiveness for the time that's bygone
Tears fill my jaded eyes
Like the pain fills my heart

Forgive me...
But i still hear you
Speaking words of silence

I'm trying to look into your eyes
But you just stare on the ground
Searching for a way out
Of this embarrassment

Once again i hear the bird singing
Before spreading wings to fly away
I know the bird is you
Singing words of sadness

Forgive me...
But i still hear you
Speaking words of silence

It's a year since you are gone
Forgiveness for the time that's bygone
Those tears are not for real
Like your words of apology
