Gentle Wounds Lyrics

Over The Rhine Gentle Wounds

entertaining visions of a lucid nature emotional precision it's our best behavior rattling the streetcars on forgotten streets making a connection with the bittersweet

crawling into your mind for some radiant reunion tapping out the messages that signify your folded wings the ground around receding feel love's stinging sword cut deep and catch the joy that's bleeding out of gentle wounds

feel the pang of hunger feel the new life awaken restoring everything that once was taken...

symbolizing agony that made the women weep feel love's stinging sword slice deep and catch the joy that's bleeding out of gentle wounds

bruised and beaten torn apart the price that's paid for love divine can't spare your life don't spare your heart just feel the joy...
