Found A quarter on the sidewalk
A love letter in a shoebox
I found a snake underneath a rock

Wish I could find forgiveness
A sand dollar on the seashore
An old dresser in an antique store

A rusty whistle in the bottom drawer
Wish I could find forgiveness


It ain't hiding in no bottle on a shelf
Or lying in the bed of someone else
I can't feel it on some Sunday morning pew

And one sleepless night it dawned on me
The piece I need so desperately
Is buried in the one place I can't get to

Girl, it's gotta come from you

Was too stubborn for my own good

I never listened like I knew I should
I don't deserve it but I wish you would
Find me some forgiveness

For every night I wasn't there
For all the times I didn't care
I admit It was never fair

Wish I could find forgiveness

It ain't hiding in no bottle on a shelf

Or lying in the bed of someone else
I can't feel it on some Sunday morning pew
And one sleepless night it dawned on me

The piece I need so desperately
Is buried in the one place I can't get to
Girl, it's gotta come from you


I've seen a broom run across a floor
Talking with it that was there before

And that's the kind of clean I came here looking for

It ain't hiding in no bottle on a shelf

Or lying in the bed of someone else
I can't feel it on some Sunday morning pew
And one sleepless night it dawned on me

The piece I need so desperately
Is buried in the one place I can't get to
Girl, it's gotta come from you
