Bonnie Raitt - Wounded Heart lyrics

rate me

Wounded heart I cannot save you from yourself

Though I wanted to be brave, it never helped.

‘Cause your trouble's like a flood raging through your veins

No amount of love's enough to end the pain

Tenderness and time can heal a right gone wrong,

but the anger that you feel goes on and on.

And it's not enough to know that I love you still

So I'll take my heart and go for I've had my fill

Instrumental

If you listen you can hear the angel's wings

Up above our heads so near they are hovering

Waiting to reach out for love when it falls apart

When it cannot rise above a wounded heart.

When it cannot rise above a wounded heart.
