Forgivin’
It’s a never ending story
That has never even started
Yes I’m walkin’ by the starlight
Cuz your lantern has grown cold
I’m learnin’ that I’m nothin’
But a shaken pile of atoms
That grow larger while in motion
And unstoppable at rest
The last chance gas station
Is watchin’ us and waitin’
For our bellies to be achin’
But somehow the grace is said
I’ll take you out, take you up again
I’ll take you where that whirlwind (winter wind) grows thin
I’ll take you where you’ll be forgiven
And you’ll lay this song on down
lay this song on down
Cuz my heart’s already weary
And it’s leakin’ and it’s burstin’
But it’s beatin’ without stoppin’
And it’s stirrin’ up my soul
Everything is connected
That’s why it’s no good lyin’
Cuz the truth is always comin’
If we want it to or not
The bus will not be waitin’
So you better show up early
With the money you’ll be needin’
Some place you want to go
I’ll take you out, I’ll take you up again
I’ll take you where that whirlwind grows thin
I’ll take you where you’ll be forgiven
And you’ll lay this song on down…
lay this song on down
lay this song on down

I think on the 9/30/2006 version Trevor replaces “whirlwind” with “winter wind”

Just listened to this from 2-1-06. It’s only been played a few times. Wouldn’t mind hearing it back in the rotation.
