Chip Away

Well, I've been weak
And you've been strong
You've done me right
And I've done you wrong

Now days are gone
And turned to years
And all my sorrow
Has shown up in tears

So show me the way
Teach me the song
Oh, let me play it
Let me sing along

I want you near me
Oh, can't you hear me?
Don't leave this bleeding heart
All alone

So chip away at me
Chip away at me
I know there's a man
Underneath this stone
Chip away at me
Chip away at me
Don't leave me here
Standin' all alone

Oh, no, child
You're not wastin' time
You're out of sight
You're not out of mind

Don't let it end
Don't let it slip away
I pray for this love
Each and every day

So chip away at me
Chip away at me
I know there's a man
Underneath this stone
Chip away at me
Chip away at me
Don't leave me here
Standin' all alone

And I know that my reasons wear thin
But I think it's this pain
That makes me a man
And now that I've said this
All in this song
You know that my love
Will never do you no harm
Never do you no harm
Yeah, yeah

So chip away at me
Chip away at me
I know there's a man
Underneath this stone
Chip away at me
Chip away at me
Don't leave me here
Standin' all alone

So chip away at me
Chip away at me
I know there's a man
Underneath this stone
Chip away at me
Chip away at me
Don't leave me here
Standin' all alone
