[Verse]
Dust on my shoes and a hole in my coat
Walking this road that swallows my hope
Sun’s beating down
I’m a shadow afloat

[Chorus]
Oh Lord
Hear me cry
Hear me cry
Got a heavy heart and the well’s run dry
Oh Lord
Hear me cry
Hear me cry
I’m reaching up but the sky won’t reply

[Verse 2]
A harmonica wails like a lost
Lonely prayer
Train tracks hum in the thick summer air
Life keeps on moving
But it don’t seem fair

[Prechorus]
I’ve been searching
Searching
Oh so long
Trying to find where I belong

[Chorus]
Oh Lord
Hear me cry
Hear me cry
Got a heavy heart and the well’s run dry
Oh Lord
Hear me cry
Hear me cry
I’m reaching up but the sky won’t reply

[Bridge]
The choir’s lifting
But my soul feels low
Every step I take
It’s a mile to go
The organ moans
The night starts to creep
The weight of the world
It won’t let me sleep
