Song by Rachelle Ferrell<br /><br>

1st Verse:<br>

Uh(Hold), She gives her body freely cause she can't give herself completely there are wounds in the way<br>

She cannot bear to relate it to the world so instead she'll just fake it with a man there are wounds in the way<br>

<br>

Chorus:<br>

If they were to treat a little girl a little boy or basically seal just a baby with some respect and human dignity <br>

Maybe there wouldn't be so many failed relationships we mighta even had a ghost of a chance just loving each other body mind<br>

and soul<br>

<br>

2nd Verse:<br>

He gives his money freely cause he can't yea give himself completely there are wounds in the way<br>

He cannot bear to be honest with himself so what the hell he will lie to a woman there are wounds in the way<br>

<br>

Chorus:<br>

If they were to treat a little boy a little girl or basically seal just a baby with some respect and human dignity yea<br>

Maybe there wouldn't be so many failed relationships we mighta even had a ghost of a chance just loving each other body mind<br>

and soul<br>

<br>

3rd Verse:<br>

As time passes by they begin to multiply there are wounds in the way<br>

Adding up secretly like the rings of an old old old oak tree there are wounds<br>

Some old and some new oh stifling and entertaining and cool there are wounds in the way<br>

And some are passed down from elder to youth they don't even belong to you there are wounds in the way<br>

<br>

Bridge:<br>

As time passes through they begin to accrue a strange sort of value<br>

Something you think worth holding on to cause you don't want to change who you are<br>

He loves his strong and true but when he gets angry it gets misconstrued into violence there are wounds<br>

And she loves him equally but when she feels misunderstood instead of sharing openly and honestly she's withholding there<br>

are wounds<br>

<br>

There are wounds in the way...<br>

There are wounds in the way...<br>

<br>
