"The Thrill Is Gone / And The Healing Has Begun" lyrics - THE WATERBOYS

This is called "The Thrill Is Gone"

I'm too tired to deceive you
We can't pretend there's nothing wrong
Who'll be the first to say it?
That the thrill is gone
And we'll never get it back

And when we talk of old acquaintance
And speak like two strangers all day long
The only four words that I hear
Are "the thrill is gone"
And we'll never get it back

And then evening falls like teardrops
And goodbye hangs on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
I won't need to go fall asleep and dream to tell me
That the thrill is gone, no
No we'll never get it back
No we'll never get it back
No when never no we never
No when never no we never
No when never no we never
No when never no we never
No when never no we never
No when never no we never
No when never no we never gonna get it back

When we walk down the avenue again
When we walk down the avenue again
When we walk down the avenue again
When the healing has begun

When we walk down the avenue in style
When we walk down the avenue we smile
And we know that its all gonna be worthwhile
Because the healing has begun oh yeah
Oh the healing has begun

I want you to put on your bright red summer dress
I want you to put on your easter bonnet, your Sunday coat and all the rest
And I want to make sweet love to you,
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
When the healing has begun
When the healing has begun

This song was written by Van Morrison
It's a privilege to sing such a fine song in the most beautiful place in England
In this year of our lord 1986

Oh!

Thank you
