Ray Parker Jr - The Past lyrics

I was wrong when I hurt you

Did you have to hurt me too

Did you think revenge would 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

You must forgive me

If we're wanna try to put things back

The way they used to be

Cuz there's no sense in going over and over

The same things as before

So let's not bring the past up anymore

(No looking back - we can't look back)

(Honey let's start again)

Out of all the good we had

You only keep track of the bad

Though you knew

I never really loved her

uh-hum

Didn't anyone tell you yet

That to forgive is to forget

How can you be mad if you don't remember

I must forgive you

You must forgive me

If we're wanna try to put things back

The way they used to be (Honey let's start again)

Cuz there's no sense in going over and over

The same things as before

So let's not bring the past up anymore

(No looking back - we can't look back)

(Musical Interlude)

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

One thing I'm sure will work

That we haven't tried before

Let's not bring the past up anymore

(No looking back - no looking back)

(Honey let's start again)
