Forgive Me Lyrics

Oh my son look at what I've done
But I am learning still
Learning still
Know that I am learning still
And oh my wife you are my life
And I am burning still
Burning still
Know that I am burning for you still

And all, all, all of my light...

    To me this song is about a man who cheats and is begging for forgiveness. It is a beautiful song whatever it’s intended meaning is.

    my interpretation is that this is Adams song to God - asking forgiveness as a fallen man -
    his wife is Eve
    the words "i was on shaky land, lost and unsure i open-end my hand and she healed it like sinking sand" refers to Adam holding out his hand and Eve taking it… "like sinking sand" is the affect of eating the forbidden fruit….
    thats what i get form it! absolutely beautiful
