I can tell by this, this crack of light
Oh girl this is gonna be, it's gonna be a beautiful day
And I can tell by this stretch of silver
Spreading all out across the curves of your faceAnd for the love, for the love of God
Oh I've gathered up my pride, I've gathered up my bits and bone
And in a world that broke me down
I'm standin' up oh but not alone'Cause this is a healing song, oh and I've got a heart that fails
But love is pushing me along, I'm liftin' up above this veil
This is a healing song, oh and I don't know if you can tell
But love is pushing me along
I'm pressin' up against the rail, pressin' up against the railI can smell the summer in the air
And I swear I can almost see, I can almost see my soul
Son, I know that it don't seem fair
But I'm turnin' away from here, oh Lord, I am comin' home'Cause this is a healing song, oh and I've got a heart that fails
But love is pushing me along, I'm liftin' up above this veil
This is a healing song, oh and I don't know if you can tell
But love is pushing me along
I'm pressin' up against the rail, pressin' up against the railI've got friends here that love me
And I've got all this mercy beating in my blood
And I've got friends here that love me
That's somethin' good, that's something good'Cause this is a healing song, oh and I've got a heart that fails
Love is pushing me along, I'm liftin' up above this veil
This is a healing song, oh and I don't know if you can tell
Love is pushing me along
I'm pressin' up against the rail, pressin' up against the railYou and I, we've come so far
Oh we've come so far, we cannot look back
I said, "You and I, we've come so far
We've come so far, we cannot look back"I said, "You and I
(You and I, we've come so far)
We've come so far
(You and we've come so far
We've come so far
(You and I, we've come so far
We cannot look back"
(You and I cannot look back)I said, "You and I
(You and I, we've come so far)
We've come so far
(You and I, we've come so far)
We've come so far
(You and I, we've come so far)
No, we cannot look back"
(We cannot look back)This is a healing song, oh and I've got a heart that fails
But love is pushing me along, I'm liftin' up above this veil
This is a healing song, oh and I don't know if you can tell
But love is pushing me along
I'm pressin' up against the rail, pressin' up against the rail
