Kingsley Lyrics

Never beg for my forgiveness
But I still gave it to ya
Never really said you're sorry
But I still forgave you
Never meant to break my heart, did you really
But I'm still broken
Holding on to faith in you, in me, in us, oh
Tell me why I still crave you
Tell me why I haven't given up on ya
Tell me why I fell and you didn't fall me for me too
God damn you
God damn you
Always captured my eye
Love is damn blind
Always left me wanting more
So damn naive
Always made me feel like I was your one and only
But I'm still broken
Holding on to faith in you, in me, in us, oh
Tell me why I still ache for you
Tell me why I still crave you
Tell me why I haven't given up on ya
Tell me why I fell and you didn't fall me for me too
God damn you
God damn you
You, you, you
You, you, you
Tell me why I still ache for you
Tell me why I still crave you
Tell me why I haven't given up on ya
Tell me why I fell and you didn't fall me for me too
