Because I Love You, I Will Forgive You


 

Because I Love You, I Will Forgive You

 

Because I love you, I will forgive you

When you forget to refill a vase and let our flowers wither

When you get caught up in something and don't check our burning dinner

When you keep me up all night from your snoring

When you scratch the side of my car pulling out in the morning

Because I love you, I will forgive you

Because you love me, you will do the same

When I forget to say "have a good day" before you leave

When I don't put back down the toilet seat

When  I don't mow the lawn for a week and a half

When I don't clean out the tub after giving the dog a bath

Because you love me, you will forgive me

Because I love you

I will buy you flowers

Pay for your car

Make you dinner

Let you sleep

Ask "how was your day"

Wash my hands

Landscape the yard

Give the dog a bath

Because I love you and you love me
