Just before I tell you standing in the rain
I would have loved you like no other babe
But a poet needs his pain
And sometimes life can be so cruel
It will pick you up and drop you down again
So if you try to love me darling please refrain
I'm still searching for the pieces
Someone else once took away
You know I used to love with all my heart
But how the times they can change.
Oh my baby's been calling and I want you to know
I'm not letting him down I'm just letting him go
Oh I never wanted to be apart
But I still don't know if I'm a wounded heart.
I've seen a lot of heartache and I've walked a lonely road
They say the darkest times before the dawn
But the rooster hasn't crowed
And when you wake up in the morning
Oh my darling I'll be gone
Oh my baby's been calling and I want you to know
I'm not letting him down I'm just letting him go
Oh I never wanted to be apart
But I still don't know if I'm a wounded heart
No I still don't know if I'm a wounded heart.
So many fools fall in love
And it's a crying game
It's a crying shame
That I'm not a fool in love
But I know what I'm feeling
And my heart is still healing
Oh my baby's been calling and I want you to know
I'm not letting him down I'm just letting him go
Oh I never wanted to be apart
But I still don't know if I'm a wounded heart
No I still don't know if I'm a wounded heart.
