Postcard Blues Lyrics

Especially with my head pounding
and lying helpless in my bed
I long for you and your expert hands
To ease this white heat from my head.

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e75625-cowboy_junkies~postcard_blues_lyrics.html ]
And you would boast that you knew
All the pressure points inside
And you could just as easily kill me
than ease the desire that I hide.

But as your patient I knew
That your healing powers had grown
From a sore that's far far deeper
Than this heart where the pain was born.

With my head again clear
I think of words to send to you,
To coax you back to my side
But always leave out, 'I love you'.

And then through my front door
a picture of a far away land
with your love on the back.
And once again I reach for my pen.
