Deeper 24

I've got you hanging around my neck

I hope to see you next time I pass through

Forgiveness has taken a long, long damn time

But I release you. Could you forgive me, too?


Remember when we would drink champagne all night

after a movie we both had seen twice

I don't know how we could let it get this way

Let's let money hold it's own change


A backpack and watch and a sweet, sweet sound

playing in my head

I never saw it coming, no.

I did not see you as you followed me


I watched you as your life burned away in flame

A private showdown before the whole town

It played out in front of that holy entourage

Better was one day than letting grace pay
