Mama used to say, "Son, time heals all wounds"
Said it when I packed my bags, chasin' city tunes
But the real deal ain't pretty, ain't no sun 'round here
The ache for Mary's smile, it just won't fade away
Still see her on the porch like it was yesterday
They say time heals, but that's a damn lie
This empty chair beside me where she used to sit
That's a shadow I carry, I can't run and
Walkin' these roads, got dust on my boots
But the heaviest dirt ain't from no muddy roots
The day I left that farm for a dollar and a name
That's the debt I'm payin' now, burnin' like a flame
Won't shed easy
They say time heals, but that's a damn lie
This empty chair beside me where she used to sit
That's a shadow I carry, I can't outrun it
Could run to the ocean, could holler at the sky
But this part of me ain't ever gonna die, damn
They say time heals, but that's a damn lie
This empty chair beside me where she used to sit
That's a shadow I carry, can't outrun it, oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
