Lyrics
A heart takes time to heal
a heart takes time to heal
to heal
a heart takes time to heal
heaven takes will to see
to see
heaven takes will to see
the earth takes a lot to breathe
to breathe
the earth takes a lot to breathe
[grant me grace to forgive
grant me your grace]
friends and lovers they leave
they leave
friends and lovers they leave
[grant me strength to change
grant me your strength]
solitude silence and peace
and peace
solitude silence and peace
[grant me eyes to see
grant me your sight]
I wash my soul out to the sea
I wash my soul to the sea
[grant me light
through the long dark night
grant me your everlasting light]
and a heart takes time to heal
to heal
a heart takes time to heal
