Lyrics

Well Gone Dry
©2004 by Jim Huffman

One drop of gladness
One drop of belief
One drop of sadness
One drop of relief
A few drops of pain
From the tears that I cry
Drawing a feeling from you
Is drawing water from a well that?s gone dry.

All I want is to hold you
And to show my concern
Just a word to console you
Not this silence you return
My cup it stands empty
That you once filled up high
Drawing a feeling from you
Is drawing water from a well that?s gone dry.

In the dirt lies a ladle
With a hole rusted through
A bucket half empty
Quenched the thirst we once knew
The stains are quite bitter
No matter how I try
Drawing a feeling from you
Is drawing water from a well that?s gone dry.
