Forgiveness

Found a quarter on the sidewalk
A love letter in a shoebox
I found a snake underneath a rock
Wish I could find forgiveness
A sand dollar on the seashore
An old dresser in an antique store
A rustly whistle in the bottom drawer
Wish I could find forgiveness
It ain't hiding in no bottle on a shelf
Or lying in the bed of someone else
I can't feel it on some Sunday morning pew
And one sleepless night it dawned on me
The piece I need so desperately
Is buried in the one place I can't get to
Girl, it's gotta come from you
Was too stubborn for my own good
I never listend like I knew I should
I don'd deserve it but I wish you would
Find me some forgiveness
For every night I wasn't there
For all the times I didn't care
I admit It was never fair
Wish I could find forgiveness
It ain't hiding in no bottle on a shelf
Or lying in the bed of someone else
I can't feel it on some Sunday morning pew
And one sleepless night it dawned on me
The piece I need so desperately
Is buried in the one place I can't get to
Girl, it's gotta come from you
I've seen a broom run across a floor
Talking with it that was there before
And that's the kind of clean I came here looking for
It ain't hiding in no bottle on a shelf
Or lying in the bed of someone else
I can't feel it on some Sunday morning pew
And one sleepless night it dawned on me
The piece I need so desperately
Is buried in the one place I can't get to
Girl, it's gotta come from you
Wish I could find forgiveness
