Forgiven - Edie Brickell & New Bohemians

Way back when we were young

We’re still the same here now under the sun

Basket full of easter grass

A little boy runs across the path to find

Mercy in the hearts of souls

Who never had no mercy shown to them

Will you please forgive me I want to be forgiven

A vacant engineer rides on a train

Of thought that will now take him home

And waving from the windows is the innocence

That has no place to go

A boomerang of birds flies high

Over your head and I look to the sky

Will you please forgive me I want to be forgiven

Given another chance to show you I love

Another chance to show you I feel

Another chance to show you I love

Another chance to show you I feel

Here I am like I always was

Here I am like I’ll always be Here I am like I always was

Here I am like I’ll always be Forgiven
