Water In The Well Lyrics by McKenna Patchen

Close

2022

[Verse 1]
You think it’s one lesson learned
The fire you build alone will always burn
But then you’re standing in a world that turns and turns
And you can’t see beyond the trees
The things you think you can mend
You end up walking straight into a dead end
But when you stop, and you smell the fresh pine trees
You’ll look around, and say who made these
[Chorus 1]
Oh, I’ve tried, and I’ve failed
To find the water in the well
The older I get, the less I think I know
So, take my foolish heart and set it aglow
You’re where the path leads, and that’s where I wanna go
[Verse 2]
Underneath the open sky
They’ll say that you can be your own guide
But when you’re lost in the wilderness
What is the break of day that lights the way?
[Chorus 2]
Cause I’ve tried and I’ve failed
To find the water in the well
The older I get, the less I think I know
So, take my foolish heart and set it aglow
[Chorus 3]
Yeah, 'cause I’ve tried, and I’ve failed
To do everything well
The older I get, the more I wanna know
Who you are, and what you’ve got to show me
You’re where the path leads, and that’s where I wanna go
Where I wanna go
