I've been thinking a lot
Of all the things that I've lost
And all the ways I forgot
To let you in on this love
And all this mucking around
Has got me f*cking unwound
A bitterness in my mouth
A bitter rage in my blood
Cos I've been stuck inside
And it's been some time
It's not so easy to try
When you've been quitting all your life
And I've been lying to myself
And that's not good for your health
There's psychological wealth
When you just open yourself
Forgive and forget
Never settle for less
Never limit yourself
Not in sickness and health
If I've learnt one thing
It's that a ring's just a ring
And that's a weight off my chest
But an elephant never forgets
You think I don't have a heart
And that I'm not too smart
It's been that way from the start
But that's not what kept us apart
If you can't say anything nice
There's no point saying it twice
But why should love be a fight
Let's just make love for tonight
When all's been said and done
You've always been the one
I'm sorry I wasn't enough
That I let it get this far
I know I fell through the cracks
But I thought you had my back
And now I'll carry this act
Until my final breath
Forgive and forget
Never settle for less
Never limit yourself
Not in sickness and health
If I've learnt one thing
It's that a ring's just a ring
And that's a weight off my chest
But an elephant never forgets
I've been thinking a lot
About just how close it got
About what I nearly just lost
And what that would mentally cost
But that's the thing about love
It always messes me up
I nearly f*cked it all up
And I'm good at f*cking things up
Cos I've been doing it all my life
It gives me trouble and strife
But it's really not what I'm like
I'm just a sentimental type
And when you fall through the cracks
It's hard to make your way back
But what the body may lack
My will is taking the slack
Forgive and forget
Never settle for less
Never limit yourself
Not in sickness and health
If I've learnt one thing
It's that a ring's just a ring
And that's a weight off my chest
But an elephant never forgets
