Well it's hard to get things right
When you're scared to death
But don't lose your sight
And don't hold your breath
For all the things that have been
I will never place the blame
And what was meant to happen
Was never meant to change
Never lie to yourself
When you start to feel low
It's not the water that will carry the boat
It's the hand on the row
Hand on the row
Hand on the row
Hand on the row
I've been left in shock
Too afraid to move
It took all I've got
For me to make it through
For all the things that have happened
I have never placed the blame
And what was meant to happen
Was never meant to change
Never lie to yourself
When you're starting to feel low
It's not the water that will carry the boat
It's the hand on the row
Hand on the row
Hand on the row
Hand on the row
