Forgiven Lyrics - Singles - Edie Brickell & The New Bohemians

Way back when we were young 

We're still the same here now under the sun 

Basket full of easter grass 

A little boy runs along the path to find 

Mercy in the hearts of souls 

Who never had no mercy shown to them 

When you sing ooh, when you sing ooh 

Will you please forgive me 

When you sing ooh, when you sing ooh 

I want to be forgiven 

A vacant engineer rides on a train 

Of thought that will now take him home 

And waving from the windows is the innocence 

That has no place to go 

A boomerang of birds flies high 

Over your head and I look to the sky 

When you sing ooh, when you sing ooh 

Will you please forgive me 

When you sing ooh, when you sing ooh 

I want to be forgiven 

Given another chance to show you I love 

Another chance to show you I feel 

Another chance to show you I love 

Another chance to show you I feel 

Here I am like I always was 

Here I am like I'll always will be 

Here I am like I always was 

Here I am like I'll always be forgiven
