Just freein' my mind of the pain
Than a slow healing heart
I had months worth of work
Oh, it's painful a slow healing heart
Oh, nothin' moves slower
Longin' for love, lonely again
When the spirit is broken
A slow healing heart dyin' to mend
Lord knows I made crying an art
You know nothin' moves slower
Woe is a slow healing heart
A slow healing heart dyin' to mend
Against looks that are tender and words that are hard
How I prayed for blind faith to lead me
'Cause I still remember those cutting remarks
And the memories start
And the memories start
To places where I'm not afraid
Longin' for love, lonely again
Some hurts take longer to fade
But there's a part of my feelings ever on guard
Listenin' to sad songs and comin' apart
I had hours of sittin' alone in the dark
Now I'm doin' fine both in body and mind
Still a prisoner of hurt
Than a slow healing heart
Nothin' moves slower
When the spirit is broken
