No Rest For The Wounded Heart lyrics

Seems it came without a warnin'

Heartache's knockin' at your door

And this cold, familiar stranger

Makes himself at home once more

Yeah

You know

So you climb onto that big, mad train

And buy a one-way ticket from the sorrow and the pain

But there's just no escape when you run out of faith

Every hope has locked its door

You said love is a liar,

A thief in the house of my dreams

Too many promises, too much pride

And you carry that anger like a thorn in your side

'Cause there's no rest for the wounded heart

You build your castles, then you tear them apart

Better run for cover, the sky's turnin' dark

There's no rest, no rest, for the wounded heart

You know

You see those city lights, they blind you

In your search for love's embrace

And ain't it funny, ain't it funny, when it finds you

How you turn and run away

You said love is a liar,

A thief in the house of my dreams

Too many memories, too much pain

Now love lies naked in the pourin' rain

And there's no rest for the wounded heart

You build your castles, then you tear them apart

Better run for cover, the sky's turnin' dark

There's no rest, no rest, for the wounded heart

Now baby, I know just how hopeless this feels

But it's never too late to try

'Cause you might end up at the end of your life

Find out you've been livin' a lie

When the angels and the hopeful

Put their tired souls to bed,

You'll be locked within your chamber,

Lost inside your head

No rest for the wounded heart

You build your castles, then you tear them apart

Better run for cover, the sky's turnin' dark

There's no rest, no rest...

No rest for the wounded heart

You build your castles, then you tear them apart

Better run for cover, the sky's turnin' dark

There's no rest, no rest, for the wounded heart

Better run, better run

For the wounded heart, no rest

The sky's turnin' dark, the sky's turnin' dark

No rest for the wounded heart

No rest for the wounded heart

No rest for the wounded heart
