Healing Hands by Elton John is a very clear lyrics. I think it's about a couple. The guy is in pain because his significant other is cold to him and her love is gone. He needs assurance that their love is not yet gone and he will be healed by her love and her touch. I think the latest comment explained it clearly too.

To me this song is about finding your one true love in life. The love that person gives you can cure any pain you experience in your life. If your one true love happens to be a Doctor, and Doctor's are said to possess healing hands, then the track is directly on point.
