Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I'm not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I'm still waiting

    It's amazing that they were castigated for saying what has proven to be correct yet nobody has ever apologized. Those 3 girls have more "package" than any male country star these days. This song is great to play as well.

    still gives me goosebumps [11] 'forgive?/sounds good/forget?/i'm not sure i could/they say/time heals everything/but i'm still waiting...' many people forget this was the grammy record, song and album of the year in 2007.

    Really intense song and probably the strongest statement off of this album.

    Great personal and political statement. Strong lyrics, fantastic song (And how in the world can the words that I said, send somebody so over the edge. That they'd write me a letter sayin' that I better, shut up and sing or my life will be over).
