Justin Townes Earle - Someday I'll Be Forgiven for This lyrics

rate me

She comes to me in the night when loneliness

Is too much to bear and she holds me close

And she helps me forget

You go steppin' out as she comes steppin' in

Someday I'll be forgiven for this

Cause you just ain't got the time that you used to

Well you say you love me and deep inside hell I know you do

So stop your crying now

I'm already convinced that someday I'll be forgiven for this

Yeah, and if I know you

You won't have nothing to say

You'll just clear the tears from your eyes

Long enough to watch me walk away

You won't curse or scream, no nothing that obscene

You'll just tell yourself you never loved me anyway

So tonight when you leave

Put the light out on the porch

Take anything that you want to keep and leave your key in the door

And I don't want to hear you crying no tears that show regret

Cause someday you'll be forgiven for this

Oh, yeah, someday you'll be forgiven for this.
