David Nail, "Forgiveness" Lyrics:
(David Nail, Donovan Woods)
I can't lie / It's hard to hear / After all we shared / After all these years / I don't know / What I'm supposed to say / What I'm supposed to feel / Seeing you this way.
Chorus:
I wish I had the answers / To all the questions in your mind / I wish I could say it will get better / But I can't look at you and lie / I know I've had my share of troubles / So who am I to give advice / But if you ain't found forgiveness / Seems like now's the time.
There was a time / You could have called / I would've dropped everything / To break your fall / But times change / Like people do / And the times we had / They have long been through.
I wish I had the answers / To all the questions in your mind / I wish I could say it will get better / But I can't look at you and lie / I know I've had my share of troubles / So who am I to give advice / But if you ain't found forgiveness / Seems like now's the time.
I-I / Say a prayer for you / I-I / That's the best that I can do / I-I / Smile and say goodbye.
I can't lie / It's hard to hear / After all we shared / After all these years.

One of the purest voices in country music.
I’m obsessed with the album version of this song. I was washing my truck when this played into my headphones. I abandoned my truck and spend two hours figuring out the three string triads and the picking pattern on my guitar…then I played along with the track another 20 times. I have not been moved by a song like that in…well ever.
Just saw him tonight in Gainesville Georgia. Been a fan of his since 2009. It’s April 2024 and he’s still just as good, if not better.
Still the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard. Love this simple version. Absolutely amazing. Gives me chills.
The words in this song glued my family back together!! You have no idea what you did. GOD BLESS YOU David !! I wish I could shake your hand some day.
David Nail is straight up amazing. One of the most underrated voices in all music, not just country.
Whole-heartedly agree. David, Luke Combs, Chris Stapelton. Men with humility and integrity. Such a massive blessing in our current culture. Real men.
For some reason this song just hit my Spotify. I think God works in mysterious ways as this song is bring me peace as I come to terms that my wife is leaving me.
Wow, that's what I call a moving song. Real country. I love your voice, always have. But songs like this are just too good, bring chills and hit home. Well done sir. Keep making beautiful music, true fans like me truly appreciate your time and effort. God Bless.
Really a good song! It really hits home for me as well. When you hear a song like this and it hits home you know it is good!
Clearly one of the best voices ever. Nashville missed this one. Just one more example of why I've tuned out.
His live performance might actually be better than his studio recording. What a powerful voice. And I'm not even a fan of country, but this song has been on repeat since it first came out last year.
David has been my favorite country artist since his debut album. He is the best and should have won multiple Grammys and CMA awards by now. He is a brilliant songwriter and hope he stays genuine and never sell out for the formulaic hollow commercialized pop faux country crap that is today's "country" music.
I've had my share of 'troubles', so who am 'I' to give advice.......
That phrase is everything.
I loved the studio version of this song, but my god this is just breathtaking. Such emotion in his voice, such talent.
I Love David Nail. i was learning the song Red Light, right about 2 days before my sister passed. she loved me singing david nail songs to her, it was the only artist that i listened to that she agreed with, considering i listened to nickel back and all. she was a punk rocker. but David Nail songs just seemed to sooth her. i sure miss her and wasnt able to sing Red light to her ;(. Thank you David for the inspiration!! I'm with you to the moon and back!!
There was a time
You could've called
And I would've dropped everything
To break your fall
But times change
Like people do
And the times we had
They have long lived through :'(
Best performance I’ve seen in years!
Thanks Jamie!
This guy is amazing. Everything he does is great
I have loved his music and voice since 2009.
Who else is crying in 2023 after listening to this masterpiece ? All I can say is WOW. David in so underrated.
I did.
David Nail has one of the sweetest male voices I have ever heard. It is so pure and clean, I wish I had a voice like that. He is phenomenal. It is often the brightest stars that tend to feel they are the dimmest and suffer in that made up darkness alone.
WOW. Just . . . WOW.
This is one you wished as a writer you could’ve wrote. This one touched me personally.
For sure! Thanks Devin.
Devon, as a writer myself, I couldn't agree more. I have lived this and felt I could have written it. The only word I would have changed myself is "Cry and say goodbye", instead of smile. All I can do when I listen to it is cry. The melody in it's utter simplicity, the lyric, his heartfelt delivery of his own song all go into making this perhaps the most beautiful song I've ever heard, and that's saying alot. As much as it tears me up, I can't stop listening to it. Thank you David for such a song! Your name means "beloved" and you are by those of us who are fortunate enough to know you and your music!
I just went to a deep emotional place. His voice and music stirs me every time. It is, as if he has a mystical way of touching the soul.
Same here.
Ditto
Agree. Amazing vocals.
Yes
Praying for you, and yours !
What a beautiful song ❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏
This is some song. It’s turns my blood to ice and stopped me still when I heard it. The hairs on my arms stood up and I felt electricity. What a song, man.
Wow!!! David Nail, that was one of your absolute BEST in my opinion. I love your voice, style and you have a great voice period!
What a story teller. I've always been amazed how this guy can paint such a vivid picture with his voice. It never gets old.
Wow hits the soul.... Guess we all have to move on at some point
Most beautiful song I've ever heard..r.i.p to my husband jimmy
Lost my Brother 2 week's ago this song is for my Big Brother I miss him already
I'm sorry for your loss. X
Great version of this. Sorry to hear about David’s depression recently. I get times when I fall into a deep hole myself. Somehow, don’t know why, but country music lifts the clouds. Old and new.
Best voice in country music hands down 😍
Incredible voice. So much passion and feel. Very underrated!
Beautiful!
Over the last few days, I continue to go to this song. It is just amazing. You can feel the pain in his words and how I think many of us can relate. It is a song that will never be forgotten in my book. 🙏
Agree
I've been a huge fan of David's for a very long time. His voice is so soothing and authentic. Every time he comes to Columbia, Mo, I go and check him out at the Blue Note.
Jeffrey Strawn does he play there regularly? I really need to see him! Thinking about a trip across the pond just to see him 🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸
Dan Pearce I don’t know that I’d call it “regularly”, but he usually performs there at least once each year.
Jeffrey Strawn thanks for that I’ll do some googlefu
I love David’s voice and music for a long time. Would love to see him live. Beautiful performance, I’m sure.
This one is album ready just like it is, what a great song.
Been my favorite song for months now. This song was so powerful to me that the first time I heard it, it brought me to tears because I’ve been in this guys shoes in a huge way.
ChrisTopher...me too, I lost a "friend" who was so much more than that. He was only in his mid 50's when he passed, I had lost touch for a number of reasons and didnt know till years later when I ran into a mutual friend and he told me what had happened. I was devastated when I found out but couldn't really show it. When I heard this I was simply in melt down mode. Still am. All I could think about was, this was the song that said so much of what I would have had I been able to be there for him. I know many, many people can relate to this song. So many times artists and record producers and radio, shy away from songs like this cause they think they are "too heavy". But that is not true. In fact just the opposite, I think it's the songs that move me most that I am drawn to like a magnet! I sense you and many other of his fans feel the same! I am so glad David is not afraid to "go there" to the deep places!...Blessings!
@@s.wilson2702 I’ve had that happen with a childhood friend that I lost touch with for almost ten years. I know how that feels when you can’t say your sorry for loosing touch. And I agree, powerful songs like this don’t get the attention they deserve but tend to end up in movies and tv shows often which is a good thing. I’m sorry to hear about your friend. Stay strong!
@@s.wilson2702 no worries that happens to me all time! You’re welcome. 👊
I continue to turn to this song. No one can say it better than you, David. This song really speaks to many! Thank you so much for such a touching song as well as the many others you have sang. God Bless🙏
Amazing artist, amazing man....LONG been one of the absolute best songwriters and vocalists! Underappreciated doesn't even scratch the surface of what's wrong with the music industry!!
Such an emotional song and definitely stirs up some tough memories. Beautiful ❤️
don't give up brother , you got it you keep me going , ill keep you going , life gives you a turn every day . your songs just hit home keep going . we will be there to help pick you up like you pick us up song it. it just cuts but it heart felt and . just keep bringing it bro. just keep bringing it. i can't say enough. just keep bringing it. PERIOD
God damn, that's a good song. Kudos, David Nail.
Love him his music and voice 😍
This was perfect..his singing, the piano playing..Job well done...loved it. Blessings💖
That to me is where talent shines. Ain't no autotune on that baby!
The most hauntingly beautiful song I’ve ever heard.
David is simply amazing. Beautiful tone and depth to his voice. Would love to see him. Might have to have a trip over to the 🇺🇸 From 🇬🇧
David Nail Is my safe place. When I need a perfect voice, and lyrics that matter, I put him on .
one word..............STUNNING! ❤️
From TOC's article: "I always tell people depression, mental illness is something I deal with on a day-to-day basis. But the difference is, now I know that it's not this quicksand that I'm going to be in for three, four, five months at a time."
That's exactly what I've come to know as well... !! I'm grateful for everything I've put into healing mine. 2007 college until today, and the month's are now certainly much brighter and less foggy than they were in say 2012. Truly.
So grateful for just how brave you truly are. Imagine just how many lives your story might touch... truly
This song really hit me.. not truly a country-man by trait (living in Denmark).. But damn.. Good song
Always loved his voice, never knew why he didn't get more air time. Guess people like stupid vapid crap more than raw talent.
I think some would rather have some insipid "dittie" than a powerful song that moves you to the core! I don't get it myself!!
Wow! Beautiful song!! 💗 I love acoustic songs! Shows how amazing a singer can be! It's not hidden by other noises! Just "Pure" and "Beautiful" their voices are! 😉💖💕💕💕
Yesssss he’s back!! Love it all the way from Australia!
This is amazing truly beautiful and his songs I have listened to and tonight found more even more beautiful songs this is heart and soul felt 🙌🙌🙌 and I hope he has more beautiful songs . If only ppl could forgive??? Wow be awesome 😔yet he sings the true lyrics to let go even though it is hard bless him and his family 🙏💗💜
My boyfriend passed as I introduced to this song. We were toxic but it hurt still. I walked away for days before her passed on our five yr anniversary.
I can't lie either... it's been over two years since i lost you, my old, life, myself and family and i still can't find who i am...
This is what you called good music!!! Sir you have an amazing voice ❤️❤️❤️❤️it hits the heart!🥲
Beautiful ❤️
Well, some songs just really hit home. This one does for sure. He can deliver a song like few can, you feel it in your soul...
Seems like nows the time...
Wow!!What a song!!This song cuts deep... beautifully heartbreaking...
Wow.... This grabs your soul & burns with every word...every note.... My God...I'm just sitting here... totally wrecked. Brilliant 💗
I agree
Meg... me too! All I have to do is think about this song, it has played in my head since I first heard it a few days ago, and I am drowning in tears. Even if it wasn't so personally meaningful, and honestly I think every person can relate to it in one way or another, the song it self just touches your soul in a deep way. That's what a great song can do.
Música extraordinária, linda demais.
Yes, Beautiful song
Such simple lyrics but incredibly and deeply impactful nonetheless. This is so well written. Hell, you don't even have to relate to what this song speaks of to still be moved by it. That is the definition of a well written song. David Nail is so underrated.
Love this song forgiveness is very hard .believe me I know and I finally let go of all the anger and hurt 😢. It seems like I think I am going forward and I fall again life is hard enough for two people and trying to make alone is even harder you get overwhelmed .
This really got to me I been feelings alone there no one to catch me when I fell
Trisha crazy one , I say I forgive, but do I really? I don’t even know! Did I let go of all the hurt and anger... NO
😢 reminds me of my sister RIP Trisha
Incredible song.. vocals, lyrics and the message it conveys.. wish you all the best my friend.
Absolutely incredible.
I love this song!!! has so much meaning..... to me I love your voice
Holly cow, this song is so beautiful. I love it.
“Every sylable is bathed in emotion and somehow draws you into the heartache as though your own” how is he so capable of breaking your heart with every note!
So well said, you expressed it perfectly!
This song I heard for the first time ever today and it hit me like a brick. So powerful.
You are so awesome! I love your music so much, your voice is AMAZING. This song is just so moving.
Amen. (and I'm not religious)... I feel the pricelessness though... and my interpretation of its depths. What a song man... Thank you.
If it doesn’t get better, than what makes life worth living? I don’t want to go on living if it doesn’t get better.
I clicked on your profile after seeing your comment. It worried me. Hope. That’s what makes it worth living. Even when this shitty world punches you down. Hope. Hope that it’ll get better.
Thank you. 🥲
It does get better! I have struggled with addiction as well as loved someone, and still do love someone who also has an addiction problem. I had to start loving them from a distance and I constantly pray for them. I have been sober 3 years now. I can tell you that the line I wish I could tell you that it will get better, but I can't look at you and lie. What is really meant by that is that he's not going to lie and say that your problems are going to get better is that he's tired of fighting for things to get better if you can't fight for it yourself. In other words it's up to you to get better. Much love to you and whatever it was that you are going through. I Promise you that it DOES but you have to have the fight to make it better. 💖💖💖
David nail has music for the soul.
There was a time, you could've called
And I would've dropped everything to break your fall ...
Again, Davil Nail does not disappoint. Excellent performance and great writing. Great pitch and vocal delivery as always. And as many will say, Damn, I wish I wrote this one.
Nashville has been sleeping on this guy for way too long. I hope after it all shakes down he gets the right label.
This song hits different
I’m still trying to give forgiveness. Not yet…..
I can relate to this song so much! Love this song!
We here in Blue Ridge GA have to say you are amazing , Thank you for the shows you did here,,,,
Love it 💕 Que bonita canción para escuchar mientras llueve ,tomando un café en casa....
Very beautiful and meaningful song
Yesterday, David Nails popped up on my spotify... one of his old favorites of mine. And Today, here I am, so grateful that he has put the Required time and his best into healing... you did it man. I truly believe you have... healed yourself.
What a beautiful song, it touch my heart and soul, will play it as long as I live. Thanks and I wish you all the best ❤.
Wow ! Amazing
Wonderful beyond words...
Goodness! The true emotion is palpable! The talent is stunning! #davidnailisamazing
I love David's music I hope he never stop making his amazing music
Super..can't believe I'm just now learning who David Nail is even though I've heard many of his music. Love Love his voice super talented artist.
This one hit me hard... To A T
Most underrated country artists ever:
1) David Nail
2) Bobby Pinson
3) Chris Cagle
Gut wrenchingly beautiful
I would imagine half the world has felt this in this lifettime
David Nail is amazing, what a talent
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I need this music.....daily
I don’t know what to say? I feel sad and worry you and your wife have troubles, that hurts me deeply to think as you’re a beautiful couple, fits my relationship with my brother as well, I’ve almost given up playing guitar and singing it’s to easy to listen to you. When I played I felt like a jukebox (background noise), cut awards were on last night everyone glued to every note and word, yea they’re very good, I am too so are you I think you hear me,blessed we are some more than others they don’t understand we can’t help it we do it even if they don’t listen, it puts bandaids on our soul.
A song thats so true. Your amazing very heart touching . I know that feeling ah so well. God Bless your broken heart. Smile David. 💕💕Wish you happiness 💙❤
Stunning emotion from this MonsterTalent!
