"The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong." - Mahatma Gandhi
lyrics
V1
Pardon my dust
I just got off the road
Back from Avignon
I’d brush it off
But lord knows if I do
We would cough it up
Get in our lungs
Then become one with us
Mixing in our blood
With every cut
We would see we’re all made
Of the same old stuff
REFRAIN
You grab my shoulders
Pull me in closer
Hear you say
“Tu es pardonné”
V2
Sorry I’m here
I know I haven’t called
For a half a year
Sorry my note
Did not show, truth be told
I didn’t get around to it
Each time I sat
With a pen and a pad
I would hear your voice
Beckoning me
So I thought why waste time
With just the thought of you
REFRAIN 2
You pour the water
Love like a cauter
Open your doorways
Forgive like a Sunday
Hear you say
“Tu es pardonné”
V3/out
Pardon my dust
I just got off the road
Like a vagabond
