Текст песни The Past - Ray Parker Jr.

I was wrong when I hurt you
Did you have to hurt me too?
Did you think revenge will make it better?

I don′t care about the past
I just want our love to last
There's a way to bring us back together

I must forgive you
And you must forgive me too
If we wanna try to put things back
The way they used to be
′Cause there's no sense in going over and over
The same things as before
So let's not bring the past back anymore

Out of all the good we had
You only keep track of the bad
Though you knew I never really loved her
No, no, no, no, no
Didn′t anyone tell you yet?
To forgive is to forget
How can you be mad if you don′t remember?

I must forgive you
You must forgive me too
If we wanna try to put things back
The way they used to be
'Cause there′s no sense in going over and over
The same things as before
So let's not bring the past back anymore

I must forgive you
And you must forgive me too
It′s the only thing that's left
That we haven′t tried to do
But one thing that I'm sure will work

That we haven't tried before
Let′s not bring the past back anymore
