DeMent, Iris - You've Done Nothing Wrong Lyrics
Well, you told me that you wished that things
Had not turned out this way
You never thought there'd come a time
When you would go away
But you stayed right here beside me
And just because I'm hurting
That don't mean that you've done something wrong
Well, you said that you were sorry
And you'd take all the blame
But we both shared the gamble
So let's both share the pain
Like a breeze that blew across us
Love just moved along
And just because I'm hurting
'Cause we were happy for a while dear
But that's all over now
I'll pick up the pieces
And I'll get along somehow
But it all came back too clearly
In my bed, alone, tonight
As I was lying here just waiting for
Oh, that early morning light
Now you've gone so far away, dear
And these words I cannot say
I cursed at you for leaving
Slammed the door and ran away
In your face, I saw the sadness
But I've waited, now, too long
To tell you I still love you
And you've done nothing wrong
'Cause we were happy for a while dear
But that's all over now
I'll pick up the pieces
And I'll get along somehow
But it all came back too clearly
In my bed, alone, tonight
As I was lying here just waiting for
Oh, that early morning light

Looky here, I be a pant saggin' negro and I love this ho.
Music has a way of bringing us all together,regardless of race,religion. This woman has a God given talent that should be enjoyed by everyone and every generation regardless. Regards Frank
wow!! i just love her....her songs really hit home
I just love iris dement
Beautiful!
Love Iris! Should be in the millions for likes!
never tire of her music xx
If I was going to add a public comment, this is where I would do it.
I have never heard an artist so true to her music as Ms. Iris is, thank you so much...........
Very good point. I think she embodies what people call "authenticity."
Queen of the Holler...Iris you sound like the real deal coal miners daughter. A southern baby doll angel voice. We love you Iris. Don't go away! Stay and play more music for us, why? We love you girl thats why!
-seamus
I wish my wife would say this she blames me for being the architect of our misery.
Brutally honest ❤️ amazing song
Iris is one of my favourite writers , the other is John Prine of course they write similar songs . I saw Iris twice in Aberdeen UK a long time ago I want her back .
They've done some duets on John Prine's In Spite Of Ourselves and For Better, Or Worse. They compliment each other's voice. Wish they'd do a whole album together. She sang Our Town on the last episode of Northern Exposure.
This woman changed my life.
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Did you write this song or is it just how it looks?
Love you Iris x Sorry I missed you in Melbourne
Amazing voice...
A very unique voice love her music.
is she referring to Adolf?
Just when I think she couldn't get any better...Iris comes along with something that knocks me down and stomps in my face. There are some other great ones...like Emmylou, and Gillian, and Sarah Jarosz...but man, is she fine!
Exquisite! Saw her once in Santa Fe, sat on the grass down front and felt like a kid at a puppet show...
we were all there in that song and stepped back out when it finished class
Never stop singing......
this is music that builts me up. LOVE
Cutest girl on earth
OMG are you kidding me? That was spectacular!
I sit sometimes and listen to Iris way into the night...play her songs over and over..such an amazing voice and style....
I have the album & cry every time I hear this. It's so sad & honest.
Can't get enough of this beautiful voice. please come to Rams Head On Stage again!!! Annapolis MD.
unbelievable song...100 great songs rolled into one!
I love iris another brilliant song Cooperman corringham
Sings like no one else ! Just hope she plays the UK at some point this decade
She is playing in Perth, Scotland, Southern Fried festival, Thurs 26-Sun 29th July.
really a great song & a great artiste. How cool!
Unbelievable good song !
this girl got something special great country
Genre labeling is somewhat arbitrary, but I think she is most accurately Folk Music. The best.
.01
great song great artist
She once sent me a personal response to a letter I wrote to her. I still have it.
+Jungle Joe Would you mind PMing the address?
I am sorry, but if you want her address, you will have to find it as I did. I would not give anyone your address either should they ask for it.
+Jungle Joe How cool
Jungle Joe I've loved Iris since first hearing her in 1996. " The Way I Should" blew my mind.
Simply the best.
So sweet. Magical.
Great song! Hello type "Ron Howard Palace" litsten to Opie sing "Lady" and "Reason to Believe"!
Beautiful song by a Beautiful woman.
sorry , i meant COMPETITION !
dear Iris ~ the only competion you have is you!!!
just the absolute best!!!
The people who "get" her, really get her. It is amazing stuff.
Incredible! Head & shoulders above everybody else (except Alison K.) the Radman
like all of songs by iris she keeps on with her wonderful voice, lust the greatest
+william evans a quite delightful and understandable Freudian slip there Mr Evans
only once in a lifetime dose a voice like this come along pure crisp clean iris has it all pure magic I have only seen her once it was breath taking thank you
Beautiful.
Just saw her Symphony Center in Chicago with John Prine a month ago. Once in a lifetime experience for someone who sees 50 or more live sets a year. It was the first time I'd seen anyone perform there other than the CSO, but she was mind blowing. Prine's set was great too, but their duet was breathtaking.
I would love to meet her and hear her sons in person.
Rip your heart out. Wisdom of timeless proportions. Love your music Iris.
Very beautiful song from this unique voice.
I absolutely love this song and Iris is a national treasure as a singer. wonderful.
Makes you think of a love lost great job Miss Dement.
Another beautiful song from Iris
It really just breaks my heart every time. One of the most mature break-up songs from one of my favorite country/folk singers.
