Wounds In The Way Lyrics – Rachelle Ferrell

Wounds In The Way Text

---

1st Verse:
Uh(Hold), She gives her body freely cause she can't give herself completely there are wounds in the way
She cannot bear to relate it to the world so instead she'll just fake it with a man there are wounds in the way

Chorus:
If they were to treat a little girl a little boy or basically seal just a baby with some respect and human dignity
Maybe there wouldn't be so many failed relationships we mighta even had a ghost of a chance just loving each other body mind
and soul

2nd Verse:
He gives his money freely cause he can't yea give himself completely there are wounds in the way
He cannot bear to be honest with himself so what the hell he will lie to a woman there are wounds in the way

Chorus:
If they were to treat a little boy a little girl or basically seal just a baby with some respect and human dignity yea
Maybe there wouldn't be so many failed relationships we mighta even had a ghost of a chance just loving each other body mind
and soul

3rd Verse:
As time passes by they begin to multiply there are wounds in the way
Adding up secretly like the rings of an old old old oak tree there are wounds
Some old and some new oh stifling and entertaining and cool there are wounds in the way
And some are passed down from elder to youth they don't even belong to you there are wounds in the way

Bridge:
As time passes through they begin to accrue a strange sort of value
Something you think worth holding on to cause you don't want to change who you are
He loves his strong and true but when he gets angry it gets misconstrued into violence there are wounds
And she loves him equally but when she feels misunderstood instead of sharing openly and honestly she's withholding there
are wounds

There are wounds in the way...
There are wounds in the way...
