Lyrics reprinted with permission

When I lost my bet with love
I fell down on my knees
Asked the sweet Lord up above
"Have mercy please"
Thinking on back to my youth
When love was young and free
You learn a little truth
Here is how it seems to me:

The moon never shines on a broken heart
Time after time love just falls apart
Time heals all wounds; whoever you are
Yes, time heals all wounds
But you’ll always have a scar

Everybody’s got some pain
Everybody’s got the blues
You lose in love and love again
Like you don’t get to choose
Remember when you were a child
Love’s all you desired
All those years of running wild
Just left you torn and tired

The moon never shines on a broken heart
Time after time love just falls apart
Time heals all wounds; whoever you are
Yes, time heals all wounds
But you’ll always have a scar

All the lovers I have known
And the truth that I’ve denied
And all the wounds that I have sown
Because of love and lust and pride

The moon never shines on a broken heart
Time after time love just falls apart
Time heals all wounds; whoever you are
Yes, time heals all wounds
Time heals all wounds
Time heals all wounds
But you’ll always have a scar
