Trying To Heal the Pain

I'm walking this long black road searching for a sign
My feet are getting tired there's tears in my eyes
Memories of the past are all that now remains
As I Search for your arms trying to heal the pain

Now when I listen to the wind I hear echoes of goodbye
Walking on this hot tar beside this painted line
Praying now with each step in the pouring rain
Searching for your arms trying to heal the pain

I try to stop and rest but tears keep filling up my eyes
The nights are cold and lonely no stars are in the sky
My heart keeps beating faster pounding out your name
As I Search for your arms trying to heal the pain

The clouds have all turned gray where white used to be
As I continue on this road with every walking beat
Trying to hear your voice as I start another day
Searching for your arms trying to heal the pain

I try to stop and rest but tears keep filling up my eyes
The nights are cold and lonely no stars are in the sky
My heart keeps beating faster pounding out your name
As I Search for your arms trying to heal the pain

Really good lyrics George can't believe no ones commenting, even after 10 years that's not right, you're a patient man!
