"Medicine Man" lyrics

"Medicine Man"

He left a hole in your heart
And a weight on your pretty little shoulder
It ain't your fault that you fell for a fool
Who would only leave you colder

He messed you up
He hurt you bad
It wasn't love
But girl, you know that

I wanna take the tears you cry
Wipe 'em from your face
Hide 'em in a place
The world will never find

Wanna dance around your soul
Burn your hurtin' up in smoke
There's poison in the pain
Healing in my hands
I'm your medicine man

There ain't a drink or pill or thrill
To cure you from your misery
I'll be the remedy you need
To wash away your history

My fix-you kiss
Could fix you up
My fingertips
Could be your drug, 'cause

I wanna take the tears you cry
Wipe 'em from your face
Hide 'em in a place
The world will never find

Wanna dance around your soul
Burn your hurtin' up in smoke
There's poison in the pain
Healing in my hands
I'm your medicine man

(I'm your medicine man)
(I'm your medicine man)

(I'm your medicine man)
(I'm your medicine man)

I wanna take the tears you cry
Wipe 'em from your face
Hide 'em in a place
The world will never find

Wanna dance around your soul
Burn your hurtin' up in smoke
There's poison in the pain
Healing in my hands
I'm your medicine man

(I'm your medicine man)
(I'm your medicine man)

(I'm your medicine man)
(I'm your medicine man)
