From No Exit (1999) by Blondie

Forgive and Forget (Stein)

In the beginning, in the days before time, the light was alive with the essence of power. And from that power were born beings who lived on the edge of eternity, and they spread their wings and soared through the ancient air. And the beating of their wings made the winds, and from the winds came the seas, and from the seas came the life of the Earth.

Nature's cast upon the sea, the winds of past, of promise be
Waters deep and cunning, a scheme of sleep as lovers breathe

If you forgive me my ferocity I won't forget your sweetness
Pull down the night, lay it before me
Gratify my head with curses

Night recalls tranquillity, a curtain falls and sets it free
Darkness calls eternity down silent halls the shadows flee

If you forgive me my ferocity I won't forget your sweetness
Pull down the night, lay it before me
Satisfy my head with curses

Forgive and forget, forgive and forget, forgive and forget

Fates are cast upon the sea, the winds of past, of promise be
Waters deep and cunning, a scheme of sleep as lovers breathe

Forgive and forget, forgive and forget
