All Is Forgiven
Neil Finn/Jimmy Barnes
Come back, come back
All is forgiven
Stay cool, stay calm
’Til I’m connected
At the end of each day
When you climb into the light
And the dogs are on the road
We’re all tempting fate
Cars are shooting by
With no number plates
And it’s love
For all occasions
And I heard about the news
In the cards in the mail
Everybody says
Come back, come back
All is forgiven
Stay cool, stay calm
’Til I’m connected
At the end of every day
When you climb into the light
And the dogs are on the road
We’re all tempting fate
Cars are shooting by
And everybody says
Come back, come back
All is forgiven
Stay cool, stay calm
’Til I’m connected
Stay cool, stay calm
’Til I’m connected
Come back, come back
Come back, come back
And the dogs are on the road
We’re all tempting fate
Cars are whizzing by
With no number plates
Hand over heels
And light into your face
Come back, come back
All is forgiven
Stay cool, stay calm
And connected
