I’ve never been inside your barroom It’s the first time I’ve tasted your wine Someone said that wine numbs a memory But her memory is stronger than wine On the wall there’s a mirror before me Reflecting what she made of me A sad looking face and tears now replace The man that I used to be The genuine healer is time And if I can hold onto my mind And place what’s left of my heart in the hands Of the genuine healer of time The darkness in here tells the story Of many a heartbroken man The hands on the clock never linger But they move as slow as they can Now I know the whiskey won’t help me And I find there’s no comfort in wine There’s only one thing that is stronger It’s the genuine healer of time
