Some Wounds Never Heal

He walked in with a load on his shoulder And a twenty pound pain in his heart With the tears in his eyes he looked older And he didn't even know where to start He spoke of wartime memories And the injuries that he'd sustained Said sometimes he wished he'd never come home Cause that's where he left all his pain Some wounds never heal Some loves never part When she said it was over and goodbye That's when his world fell apart In that letter he got on the front lines It said I'm sorry I found someone new I can't go on in fear and not knowing All the sleepless nights I've worried bout you Some wounds never heal Sometimes true love parts Injuries of the flesh can be healed Unlike those of the heart
