I have cried in tears of sadness, I have cried in tears of joy

Found future in the present, found hope within a seed

I have seen my bucket empty
D
I have seen my well run dry

But there’s water down the road

When my chances come to knock

I’ll make it where I’m goin’

Standing tall just like a rock
