Iris Dement - Sweet Forgiveness

Sweet Forgiveness
Iris Dement

Sweet forgiveness, Thats what you give me,
"Thats all over"
When you hold me close, and you say,
You dont go looking back,
You dont hold the cards to stack,
You mean what you say,
Sweet forgiveness,you help me see,
appear to be,

"Thats all over and I still love you"
I'm not near as bad, and I sometimes,
When you hold me close and say,
Theres no way that I could make up
Sometimes it gets to hurting

for those angry words I said,

Sweet forgiveness, dear God above,
and the pain goes to my head,
I say we all deserve a taste of this kind of love,
Someone who'll hold our hand,
"I understand and I still love you"and whisper,
