Forgiving You Was Easy (Instrumental version originally performed by Willie Nelson) - Various Artists

Forgiving you was easy

But forgetting seems to take the longest time

I just keep thinking

And your memory is forever on my mind

You know I'll always love you

And I can't forget the days when you were mine

Forgiving you is easy

But forgetting seems to take the longest time

The bitter fruit of anger

Growing from the seeds of jealousy

Oh what a heartache

But I forgive the things you said to me

'Cause I believe forgiving

Is the only way that I'll find peace of mind

And forgiving you is easy

But forgetting seems to take the longest time

The years have passed so quickly

As once again fate steals a young man's dreams

Of all the golden years

And growing old together you and me

You asked me to forgive you

You said there was another on your mind

And forgiving you is easy

But forgetting seems to take the longest time

Forgiving you is easy

But forgetting seems to take the longest time
