Forgiving Myself by David Haerle Lyrics

A hey hey hey hey, I made the great discovery
Just the other day, I found myself happy
Ah even though I’d made, a mistake that could torture me
Like every misstep would before I knew the key

I spent many a year
Demandin’ perfection
Of myself to quell my fear of rejection
I’m in a brand new gear, showin’ a little affection
To me

Well I found a new way to live
I finally found I’ve got to forgive
Myself every minute, every hour of every day

So long my own, very worst critic
A habit I had sown, and I couldn’t quit it
Oh I had grown, so tired and sick of it
Yes I had

But I found a new way to live
I finally found I’ve got to forgive
Myself every minute, every hour of every day
I could wish that twenty years ago, I had a clue
But I did not and you know what? I’ll forgive that too

A hey hey hey hey, I made the great discovery
Just the other day, I found myself happy
You know I wouldn’t trade, my screw ups not even if I could

Cause I found a new way to live
Yes I finally found I’ve got to forgive
Myself every minute, every hour of every day
