Lyrics

They say that singing
is good for the soul, Lord
That you might find
the joy you're looking for

Like the well
that went dry
No more words
'n no more tears to cry

Chorus:
Sometimes it's messy
Sometimes it's sad
Struggling to make a trail
Where there's no path
Need to find
a melody to heal
Need a song to sing
like the whippoorwill

I have heard it said
that pain is a gift
Face the darkness
and run with it

Like the well
that went dry
No more words
'n no more tears to cry

Chorus:
Sometimes it's messy
Sometimes it's sad
Struggling to make a trail
Where there's no path
Need to find
a melody to heal
Need a song to sing
Like the whippoorwill

Solo musical bridge

Chorus:
Sometimes it's messy
Sometimes it's sad
Struggling to make a trail
Where there's no path
Need to find
a melody to heal
Need a song to sing
like the whippoorwill
