Heart is Healing - Martha

The phone was ringing for an hour or so

When I heard your voice in Tokyo say

«Promise you won’t do this anymore»

You’ve always given sound advice

And tried not to catastrophise

But honestly, I couldn’t face the thought

Of that familiar feeling

When your heart is healing, Theodor

I just keep on running from it all

I think I’ll work from home today

I feel like quitting anyway

So, give me nothing ventured, nothing gained

This year blew my world apart

Admin with a broken heart

Last orders at a Kōenji Station bar

That familiar feeling

When your heart is healing, Theodor

I just keep on running from it all

It takes a lifetime

To begin to forget

I don’t think I’m ready

I don’t think I’m ready

So painful

Take me back to the start

The stillness of a lonely healing heart

That familiar feeling

When your heart is healing, Theodor

I just keep on running from it all
