Forgiveless

I went down to the river to cleanse my soul

But I can't, no, I won't let it go

I dipped down deep in the cool cold water

And came up clean as I'll ever be, baby

All my sins been washed away

In the cool cold depths of my watery grave, and

All my sins been washed, but, babe

I still can't pray for you

Oh, I still won't forgive you

I went down to the river

To make my peace in the shade of the evergreen trees

Tore down my pride to build your self-esteem

Took a while but I'm back again, baby

All my sins been washed away

In the cool cold depths of my watery grave, and

All my sins been washed, but, babe

I still can't pray for you

Oh, I still won't forgive you

Seventy times seven, see

Not for you, but it's for me

It's one thing I won't regret

I'll forgive but won't forget

Seventy times seven, see

Not for you but it's for me

It's one thing I won't regret

I'll forgive but won't forget

All my sins been washed away

In the cool cold depths of your watery grave, and

All my sins been washed, but, babe

I still can't pray for you

Oh, I still won't forgive you
