Iris DeMent - Sweet Forgiveness
Sweet forgiveness, that's what you give to me
when you hold me close and you say "That's all over"
You don't go looking back,
you don't hold the cards to stack,
you mean what you say.
Sweet forgiveness, you help me see
I'm not near as bad as I sometimes appear to be
When you hold me close and say
"That's all over, and I still love you"
There's no way that I could make up for those angry words I said
Sometimes it gets to hurting and the pain goes to my head
Sweet forgiveness, dear God above
I say we all deserve a taste of this kind of love
Someone who'll hold our hand,
and whisper "I understand, and I still love you"

After You're Gone
Calling For You
Childhood Memories
Easy's Gettin' Harder Every Day
Fifty Miles Of Elbow Room
God May Forgive You But I Don't
Higher Ground
Hotter Than Mojave In My Heart
I'll Take My Sorrow Straight
In Spite Of Ourselves
