Gentle Wounds - Over the Rhine

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 communion

Pressed beneath 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, gentle

Gentle wounds, gentle wounds

Gentle wounds, gentle

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, gentle

Gentle wounds, gentle wounds

Gentle wounds, gentle

Gentle wounds

Gentle wounds, gentle

Gentle wounds, gentle wounds

Gentle wounds, gentle

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 that’s bleeding out of Gentle wounds, gentle

Gentle wounds, gentle wounds

Gentle wounds, gentle

Gentle wounds

Gentle wounds, gentle

Gentle wounds
