lyrics

"The Healing Comes Slow"
Slow down the world, so you can see
Where you were left so unsteady
You let it all back in your head, now you should know
The pain rushes in, and the healing comes slow…

The healing comes slow…

Had so many dreams, they all flew away
I still feel the bottomless pit in my heart today
If I could arrange for the river to turn back its flow
‘Cos I’m moving too fast, and the healing comes slow…

The healing comes slow…

How do they do it-
Everyone else in this wonderful world of pain?
I cannot believe
How they manage to carry themselves
Under so much weight
To face the world again
One thing I know…

The healing comes slow…
