Forgiving You Songtext
von Turnpike Troubadours

Did you take my love to the heavens above
Or to Denver or some mountain city
Render my heart with the hand of an artist

Hey now, I′m stocked for the drought
I'm settled in there ain′t no getting out
Hey now, don't you know where that leaves me

Learning in kind
The voice in my mind
Ain't never been mine all along
Forgiving you is a thing I can do
No matter what you have done wrong

I relate to it all as a whip-poor-will calls
Lovesick and open about it
Lonesome for home that I left long ago


Finally I did I put in my bid
For a life that I kept quietly under my lid
Finally I did like a starry eyed kid

Learning in kind
The voice in my mind
Ain′t never been mine all along
Forgiving you is a thing I can do
No matter what you have done wrong

At the old county line
See logging road signs
They run through the country like veins
Red oak and hickory and dogwoods and pines

Hey now, there′s no need to hide
No one could find you now not if they tried
Hey now, where does that leave me?


Learning in kind
The voice in my mind
Ain't never been mine all along
Forgiving you is a thing I can do
No matter what you have done wrong
