Rain's seeping into my shoes today I'd take a cab but I couldn't pay Stop in for coffee along the way Umbrella sprays I'm digging for change Leadbelly playing a song I long to sing And he's saying try to be strong Just feel so far from who I wanna be Well I've got a song and it screams in my heart A crystal glass it's breaking apart I tell myself it's the path I chose Knocking on doors that wanna stay closed Leadbelly playing a song I long to sing And he's saying try to be strong Just feel so far from who I wanna be When did these dreams go and grow so tall They got so big and I feel so small I'm giving everything I got But all I can see is all that I'm not Leadbelly playing a song I long to sing And he's saying try to be strong Just feel so far from who I wanna Leadbelly playing a song I long to sing And he's saying try to be strong Just feel so far from who I wanna Feel so far from who I wanna Feel so far from who I wanna be.
