Water in a Well

They say that looks can be deceiving And there's been rumors going round One look at me's the same thing as believing Everything you've heard without hearing a sound So if my eyes remind you of water in a well It's 'cause your heart is the stone I know sometimes it can seem like my mind Belongs to a child that's grown But somewhere between you and me I've lost my way And I've been trying to get home Trying like hell but it's too soon to tell If our love has all dried up like water in a well Lord knows I've tried to move on And get you out of my mind You find your way in to all of my songs Every memory I manage to find Someday if I'm standing on some big old stage And you're down in the crowd Trying to tell your friends I used to know him when But in your heart you'll know it ain't true somehow Trying like hell but it's too soon to tell If our love has all dried up like water in a well I know you see what it's doing to me I'm up here playing my part in this nobody town --- Water in a Well - Sturgill Simpson
