Stewie Lyr Req: songs by Tommy Sands (67* d) Lyr Add: THE MUSIC OF HEALING (Tommy Sands) 08 Apr 06


The actual title of the song you are after is 'The Music of Healing'.

THE MUSIC OF HEALING
(Tommy Sands)

Don't beat the drum that frightens the children
Don't sing the songs about winning and losing
Sit down beside me the green fields are bleeding
Sing me the music of healing
Sing me a song of a lover returning
The darker the night, the nearer the morning
Bring me the news of a new day that's dawning
Sing me the music of healing

Chorus:
Ah, the heart's a wonder
Stronger than the guns of thunder
Even when we're torn asunder
Love will come again

Sometimes the truth's like a hare in the cornfield
You know that it's there but you can't put your arms round it
All we can hope for is follow its footprints
Sing me the music of healing
Who would have thought I could feel so contented
To learn I was wrong after all of my rambles
I've learned to be hard and I've learned how to tremble
Sing me the music of healing

Chorus

Somehow the cycle of vengeance keeps turning
Till each other's sorrows and songs we start learning
Peace is the prize for those who are daring
Sing me the music of healing
Time is your friend, it cures all your sorrows
But how can I wait till another tomorrow
One step today and a thousand will follow
Sing me the song of healing

Chorus (x2)
