"The Heart That Never Waits" lyrics

"The Heart That Never Waits"

Well, I rolled the dice, baby
Now I'm left out all alone
I was lost in a shuffle, babe
Lost and halfway gone
Oh, I know you and that vengeful woman inside
Wore out my welcome, I knew when to step aside

Time is the healer that rescued me
The blues led to the bottle
That landed me on the street
When it's raining down with worry
And you know it's too late
It's the train that never comes
And the heart that never waits
So I'll be movin' on (movin' on, I'll be movin' on)
I'll be movin' on (movin' on, I'll be movin' on)
I'll be movin' on (movin' on, I'll be movin' on)
I'll be movin' on (movin' on, I'll be movin' on)

We used to be perfect, baby
I saw love in your eyes
Put my wild days behind me
I thought I had arrived

The gods must have heard, I guess I spoke too soon
They had other plans , just not for me and you

Time is the healer that rescued me
The blues led to the bottle
That landed me on the street
When it's raining down with worry
And you know it's too late
It's the train that never comes
And the heart that never waits
So I'll be movin' on (movin' on, I'll be movin' on)
I'll be movin' on (movin' on, I'll be movin' on)
I'll be movin' on (movin' on, I'll be movin' on)
I'll be movin' on (movin' on, I'll be movin' on)

Look over there, thinking you are all that
Wrapped around my finger, to find out it's all an act
I see through you woman and that sweet masquerade
What do you want from me? All you do is throw me shade
Time is the healer that rescued me
The blues led to the bottle
That landed me on the street
When it's raining down with worry
And you know it's too late
It's the train that never comes
And the heart that never waits

Time is the healer that rescued me
The blues led to the bottle
That landed me on the street
When it's raining down with worry
And you know it's too late
It's the train that never comes
And the heart that never waits
So I'll be movin' on (movin' on, I'll be movin' on)
I'll be movin' on (movin' on, I'll be movin' on)
I'll be movin' on (movin' on, I'll be movin' on)
I'll be movin' on (movin' on, I'll be movin' on)
