I cant believe it
Do my eyes deceive me?
Am I back in your arms?
Away from all harm?
Its like a dream to be with you again
Cant believe that Im with you again
I missed you and I must admit
I kissed a few and once did sit
On Ivor the Engine Drivers lap
And later with him, had a nap
You are forgiven, you are forgiven, you are forgiven ...
You are forgiven
