I held him as close as I dared to go
All his sweet love has started to show
I know that I need him, but trustin his love
But the scars from an old love haven't quite healed enough

Yes the battle is over, but healing takes time
Leave it all them old memories behind
I know that I love him, need him so much
But the scars from an old love haven't quite healed enough

Yes the battle is over, and the victor has fled
Wounded and dying, one lonely heart bled
Now love sounds her bugle, playing loves old sweet song
While the scars from an old love haven't quite all gone

Yes the battle is over, but healing takes time
Leave it all them old memories behind
I know that I love him, need him so much
But the scars from an old love haven't quite healed enough
