And The Healing Has Begun Lyrics
And we'll walk down the avenue again
And we'll sing all the songs from way back when
And we'll walk down the avenue again and the healing has begun
And we'll walk down the avenue in style
And we'll walk down the avenue and we'll smile
And we'll say baby ain't it all worthwhile when the healing has begun
I want you to put on your pretty summer dress
You can wear your Easter bonnet and all the rest
And I wanna make love to you yes, yes, yes when the healing has begun
When you hear the music ringin' in your soul
And you feel it in your heart and it grows and grows
And it comes from the backstreet rock & roll and the healing has begun
I want you to put on your pretty summer dress
You can wear your Easter bonnet and all the rest
And I wanna make love to you yes, yes, yes and the healing has begun
We're gonna make music underneath the stars
We're gonna play to the violin and the two guitars
We're gonna sit there and play for hours and hours when the healing has begun
Spoken: Wait a minute, listen, listen,
I didn't know you stayed up so late.
I just got home from a gig and I saw
you standing on the street.
Just let me move on up to this window-sill a lot yeah, I got some sherry.
You want a drop of port.
Let's move behind this door here.
Let's move on up behind this letter-box behind this door.
Let's go in your front room,
let's play this Muddy Waters record you got there,
if you just open up a little bit
and let me ease on in this backstreet jellyroll....
We're gonna stay out all night long
And then we're gonna go out and roam across the field
Baby you know how I feel when the healing has begun
When the healing, when the healing
We're gonna stay out all night long
We're gonna dance to the rock & roll
When the healing when the healing has begun
Baby just let me ease on a little bit, dig this backstreet jellyroll
And we'll sing all the songs from way back when
And we'll walk down the avenue again and the healing has begun
And we'll walk down the avenue in style
And we'll walk down the avenue and we'll smile
And we'll say baby ain't it all worthwhile when the healing has begun
You can wear your Easter bonnet and all the rest
And I wanna make love to you yes, yes, yes when the healing has begun
And you feel it in your heart and it grows and grows
And it comes from the backstreet rock & roll and the healing has begun
I want you to put on your pretty summer dress
You can wear your Easter bonnet and all the rest
And I wanna make love to you yes, yes, yes and the healing has begun
We're gonna play to the violin and the two guitars
We're gonna sit there and play for hours and hours when the healing has begun
I didn't know you stayed up so late.
I just got home from a gig and I saw
you standing on the street.
Just let me move on up to this window-sill a lot yeah, I got some sherry.
You want a drop of port.
Let's move behind this door here.
Let's move on up behind this letter-box behind this door.
Let's go in your front room,
let's play this Muddy Waters record you got there,
if you just open up a little bit
and let me ease on in this backstreet jellyroll....
And then we're gonna go out and roam across the field
Baby you know how I feel when the healing has begun
We're gonna stay out all night long
We're gonna dance to the rock & roll
When the healing when the healing has begun
Baby just let me ease on a little bit, dig this backstreet jellyroll

I can't believe noone else has written a comment on this yet. I think this is the most amazing song... weirdly it reminds me of when my ex broke up with me. I was working in this trendy cafe in Glasgow which was always empty and i hadnt seen my boyfriend for over a wk. I used to be there by myself, just thinking about stuff (why hadn't i heard from him mostly) and listening to the one decent album in there which was Van Morrison. ..eventually my boyfriend finally dropped by,and dumped me, in the cafe. And as he walked out the door this song came on and it just totally fit. I liked him so so much it hurt so bad.but he was in a band, had just started uni & wanted to go out and meet new people and i guess i suddenly didnt fit into his new life anymore. All I ever wanted to do was be with him, and do all the stuff it says in the song with him..so i guess the song reminds me of him, the git I'll always have feelings for. Apparently he really regretted it later..but hey, life goes on.
This song is so sweet. It's something I wish I could say to girls. Raw emotion, you know? It's truly a great song of rock and roll, by a great artist of rock and roll, Van the Man.
Pure sensuality
