Forgiveness and Permission
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I was keeping my powder dry till you did more than catch my eye
Barely wearing that mini-skirt
You looked so good it almost hurt
I said baby your've makine me crazy and you said
It's easier to get forgiveness than permission
So why wait when you know what I'm missing
We could keep on keeping our distance
Spend our whole lives wishing when it's
Easier to get forgiveness than permission
I started thinking 'bout the day we met and how lonely I'd be if I had let
My head take my heart outta asking your name
I wouldn't be loving you night and day
Oh you're so right so if you wanna hold me tight remember
It's easier to get forgiveness than permission
So why wait when you know what I'm missing
We could keep on keeping our distance
Spend our whole lives wishing when it's
Easier to get forgiveness than permission
We're not gonna do something tonight we'll regret in the morning no
'Cause we're gonna sleep till noon tomorrow
It's easier to get forgiveness than permission
So why wait when you know what I'm missing
We could keep on keeping our distance
Spend our whole lives wishing when it's
Easier to get forgiveness than permission
We could keep on keeping our distance
Spend our whole lives wishing when it's
Easier to get forgiveness than permission
