When I left I left walkin' wounded I made my escape from the rain Still a prisoner of hurt I had months worth of work Just freein' my mind of the pain I had hours of sittin' alone in the dark Listenin' to sad songs and comin' apart Lord knows I made crying an art Woe is a slow healing heart Chorus:
A slow healing heart dyin' to mend Longin' for love lonely again But when the spirit is broken And the memories start Nothin' moves slower Than a slow healing heart
How I prayed for blind faith to lead me To places where I'm not afraid Now I'm doin' fine both in body and mind Some hurts take longer to fade But there's a part of my feelings ever on guard Against looks that are tender and words that are hard 'cause I still remember those cutting remarks Oh it's painful a slow healing heart
Chorus:
A slow healing heart dyin' to mend Longin' for love lonely again When the spirit is broken And the memories start You know nothin' moves slower Than a slow healing heart Nothin' moves slower Than a slow healing heart
