ELTON JOHN - Healing Hands lyrics

rate me

Music by Elton John

Lyrics by Bernie Taupin

I never dreamed I could cry so hard

That ain't like a man

I could fly like a bird some days

Had a place where I could land

I could have sworn we were all locked in

Ain't that what you said

I never knew it could hurt so bad

When the power of love is dead

But giving into the nighttime

Ain't no cure for the pain

You gotta wade into the water

You gotta learn to live again

And reach out for her healing hands

Reach out for her healing hands

There's a light, where the darkness ends

Touch me now and let me see again

Rock me now in your gentle healing hands

I never knew love like poison

That burned like a fire

All I ever wanted was a reason

To drown in your eyes

I never knew sleep so restless

Empty arms so cold

That's not the way it's supposed to be

It ain't the spell that I was sold
