Healing Hands Lyrics

Healing Hands

Music by Elton John . lyrics by Taupin
Album Sleeping With The Past 1989

I never dreamed I cry so hard
That ain't like a man
I could
Like a bird someday
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 so bad
When the power of love is all 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
And let me see again
Rock me now
In her 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
Ain't the spell
That I was sold

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
And let me see again
Rock me now
In her gentle healing hands

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
And let me see again
Rock me now
In her gentle healing hands
