You used to be the one that I dreamed of
So good for me or so it seemed
But now I can feel there’s something around you
And it’s uneasy babe, but it’s plain to see, yeah

Tell me, is there a moment when he doesn’t linger
Behind your starry eyes, his beckoning fingers
Pull you so far away from the one who wants you
Oh will he ever stay or just tail and taunt you

You’re wounded in love
Forsaken by nature
Oh how you keep trying, you search everywhere
You’re wounded in love
Forsaken by nature
You look in each window but nobody’s there

Wounded in love

There’ll come a time when my heart is stronger
And these, these tears of misery have had their day
But for your sorry soul, the verdict is longer
And I’d, I’d give it all to you, but not this way

You’re wounded in love
Forsaken by nature
Oh how you keep trying, you search everywhere
You’re wounded in love
Forsaken by nature
You look in each window but nobody’s there
Ooh yeah

You’re wounded in love
Forsaken by nature
Oh how you keep trying, you search everywhere
You’re wounded in love
Forsaken by nature
You look in each window but nobody’s there

Wounded in love
Wounded in love
Wounded in love
You look in each window but nobody’s there

Wounded in love
Wounded in love
Wounded in love
You look in each window but nobody’s there
