The Apology Song

Toro I am humble, for tonight I understand,
Your royal blood was never meant to decorate this sand
You've suffered great injustice
So have thousands before you
I offer an apology, and one long over due

I am sorry, toro, I am sorry
Hear my song, I know I sing the truth
Although we were bred to fight
I reach for kindness in your heart tonight, and if you can forgive

And if you can forgive, love can truly live
And if you can forgive, and if you can forgive, love can truly live

Toro, I am frightened, but I'll use my final breath,
to tell you that I'm sorry, let us end this dance of death
Two centuries of agony, that tore your heart with sand
Here and now with my amends, this senseless giving ends

I am sorry, toro, I am sorry
Hear my song, I know I sing the truth
Although we were bred to fight
I reach for kindness in your heart tonight, and if you can forgive

And if you can forgive, love can truly live
And if you can forgive, and if you can forgive, love can truly live
And if you can forgive, and if you can forgive
Love, love will truly live
