M. Ward - Clean Slate

When I was a younger man
I thought the pain of defeat would last forever but
Now I don’t know
What it would take to make my heart back down
‘Cause I only have to wait a little while
Before I
Get my
Clean slate
Then somewhere in another place
Who knows? Could be another lifetime
Everything we gave away
Returns like a seed from a fugitive tree
And you only have to wait a little while
Before you
Find the truth
(Truth)
And I only had to wait a little while
Yeah I only had to wait a little while
Yeah I only had to wait a little while
Before I
Got my
(My)
Clean slate
