Moment Of Forgiveness
Indigo Girls · Other Songs - Indigo Girls
That's why I called you on the phone
Cause in a moment of forgiveness I didn't wanna be alone
And I guess that I was willing, more than I ever was before
Cause in a moment of forgiveness I come a knockin' at your door
Baby I woke up cryin last night just to realize that you were gone
Has it been two long years without you, tell me,
when are you gonna come home?
I guess that I was hoping that you'd finally understand
And in a moment of forgiveness you'd reach out and take my hand
Now baby I know you're not one for baring witness
(Baby I know)
And you told me that one wrong move is gonna sell you out
(One wrong move)
And i see that you kept your word
(See that you kept your word)
And made it harder than it had to be
Wish I could save you the trouble babe
(Oh, oh , oh)
Give you a little pice of mind
Baby I woke up cryin' last night just to realize that you were gone
It's been two long years without you,
when are you gonna come home?
Guess that I was hoping that you'd finally understand
And in a moment of forgiveness you'd reach out and take my hand
And in a moment of forgiveness you'd reach out and take my hand
