Lyrics I'll Forgive You, but I Can't Forget - Roy Acuff & His Smoky Mountain Boys

You ask me to forgive you, little darling
To forget that our plans were upset
I try oh so hard not to remember
I'll forgive you but I can't forget

Somewhere I hope you are happy
And I hope your heart holds no regrets
Each night I pray the Lord to watch o'er you
I'll forgive you but I can't forget

The sadness of our parting still lingers
My eyes from tears are still wet
I'll always love you forever
I'll forgive you but I can't forget

Now that you've left me for another
What a pity that we ever met
For life's not worth living without you
I'll forgive you but I can't forget
