You Could Be Forgiven Lyrics - Singles - Horse

Beneath the lights, the slease, the mayhem 

handome ads, and cool seduction. 

Everything is impossible and everything's so easy, 

Invasion of invented needs, 

between the carrot and the stick. 

They fix you with their beastly eyes and smile 

and if they darken your sweet soul, 

and if they ever let you go. 

Is your love, is it, strong enough, is it 

like a feast, is it, sweet or wild, is it, 

All of these things:...? 

You could be forgiven 

Into anchor-tattooed arms 

go sad-eyed dreamers bound for elsewhere 

Lovers cling like the Pieta in style 

Myth and sham, believe, believe 

your tears will end, 

you've got to feel this love 

please... 

and if they darken your sweet soul, 

and if they ever let you go. 

Is your love, is it, strong enough, is it 

like a feast, is it, sweet or wild, is it, 

All of these things:...? 

You could be forgiven
