Description
There is nothing worse than paying for a mistake you made with a former love, long after they are gone. At some point you need to be granted amnesty so you can get on with the business of living. I found that out the hard way.
Lyrics
Amnesty I was a fool, I let you go Let you slip through my hands And just like a fool I didn’t know That I’d soon be a sorry man And now every day I pay the price, when I see you with him ‘cuz I know you fell in love almost over night And now you really rub it in I made my mistake And I’ve done my time Show a little mercy on me Make the punishment Fit the crime Won’t you grant me amnesty I should have known that you’d get your revenge For the way I treated you And now I live my life out on the edge Ever since you said we’re through An eye for an eye A tooth for a tooth That’s what you wanted from me You must believe that I Am telling the truth When I say that I am so sorry I made my mistake And I’ve done my time Show a little mercy on me Make the punishment fit the crime Won’t you grant me amnesty Won’t your grant me amnesty Words and music by Gordon Hunt Copyright 1985 Gorgo Music Company ASCAP
