Robert Cray Band - PARDON lyrics

<b>PARDON</b> by <i>Robert Cray Band</i><br />I hear him when he weeps and moans

I've even seen him shed tears

For after taking those wedding vows

That didn't last many years

I've seen him walk the streets alone

In the wind and rain cold and weak

Help the poor man save his heart

Take him in, make him neat

And grant him a pardon

Grant him a pardon from love

The people talk when he passes by

And they don't seem to care

The pain he hides down in his soul

That they don't want to share

If he could turn this world around

He could be like you and me

Help him break these chains of love

Help the man go free

And grant him a pardon

Grant him a pardon

Grant him a pardon from love

(Guitar Solo)

And grant him a pardon

Grant him a pardon from love

He's guilty of nothing that I can think of, oh no

So let's not convict him

He just happens to be a prisoner of love

So if you're out on that lonely street

And by chance pass him by

Don't rush to judgement or put him down

Cause you could be that guy

Someone could take your heart to school one day

And that would surely change your plans

And all the things you think you know

Now you understand

And grant him a pardon

Grant him a pardon

Grant him a pardon from love

All you got to do is

Grant him a pardon

Grant him a pardon

Grant him a pardon from love

Grant him a pardon, baby

Grant him a pardon from love

Just grant him a pardon

From love

Won't ya
