"Forgiving You" lyrics

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 whippoorwill calls
Lovesick and open about it
Lonesome for home that I left long ago

And finally I did, I put in my bid
For a life I kept quietly under my lip
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 the logging road signs
They run through the country like veins
The red oak and hickory and dogwood and pine

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
