about
"BJ Wilbanks' distinctive style plays on the rich sounds of slow-burning 60's rhythm 'n' blues. One listen to the Stax brass & honeyed nostalgic harmonies and you'll get the picture...smoldering Motown vibes with a touch of Southern roots."

lyrics
I remember when we first met baby, we were both singing the blues
Felt something there, we were scared to lose
Every time I heard the phone ring darling, I always prayed it was you
There's nothing sweeter than the sound of your voice coming through

(chorus)
Mmm, and that's when my heart melts baby
That's when the feeling is true
That's when your love starts healing
Love starts healing my blues

Any time I'm not myself, baby, you stand beside me so true
There's nothing stronger than the love that I feel for you
Oh, now I remember when our hearts weren't something, we were afraid to lose
I remember how it felt so brand new

(chorus)
Awww, that's when my heart melts baby
That's when the feeling is true
That's when your love starts healing
Love starts healing my blues

Oh, babe i know you feel it
I know you feel it too, the love that's coming through
Now there's nothing, nothing, nothing we can't do, yeah

(chorus)
Awww baby, that's when my heart melts darling
That's when the feeling is true
That's when your love starts healing
Love starts healing
That's when my soul has more meaning, yeah yeah yeah
That's when your love starts healing
Love starts healing my blues
Start healing my blues
