Well, I remember what you told me, said drinking was unholy
So Lord, can you point me to the creek?
And I still keep it with me, tucked under all the memories
Your voice echoing throughout those trees
And through unfavorable weather and holes in the weather
These boots still covered in tar
Well, I'm still praying to the heavens and hoping for them settings
But hope only gets a man so far
Well, this game of life, things heavy on my heart
And love is simple, loneliness is twice as hard
And I'll carry that about everywhere I go
They say a prayer sir makes diamonds high, the heaven might still call
No, I've seen heaven without dying, met the devil without trying
And they both seem to want to talk to me
But I'm all out of luck now and my dreams ain't worth the buck
Oh, it's tough trying to land on my feet
Well, this game of life, things heavy on my heart
And love is simple, loneliness is twice as hard
And I'll carry that about everywhere I go
They say a prayer sir makes diamonds high, the heaven might still call
And every day it's getting colder since that day in October
But you told me it was over, so I left
Cause if you need me, well, I told you I'm on the better side
It's over, trying to find a forerunner
Leave clover to get me out of this mess
This game of life, things heavy on my heart
And love is simple, loneliness is twice as hard
And I'll carry that about everywhere I go
And they say a prayer sir makes diamonds high, the heaven might still call
This game of life, things heavy on my heart
And love is simple, loneliness is twice as hard
And I'll carry that about everywhere I go
And they say a prayer sir makes diamonds high, the heaven might still call
