Canteen Full of Dreams Video (MV)

I stood my ground when
I should have turn and run
I watched my dreams melt away
Like ice cubes in the sun
I fell in love with ladies
That don't know I even exist
Prayed to my Savior
And held my razor to my wrist

I found myself in trouble
And lost myself in vain
Busted in these honky-tonks
And broke down in the rain
I heard the sirens of confusion
In the canyons of my mind
Sentenced to eternity,
Accused of killing time

Lord, I guess I lasted longer
Than most folks thought I would
Overworked and underpaid
And so misunderstood
I suffered from the burden
Of an excess of extremes
But I made it through the desert
With a canteen full of dreams

I spent my mind on music
Lost my soul inside a song
Seems like people like me
Got nowhere to belong
Others seem to know where they're bound
And where they've been
Seems like I've always been
On the outside looking in

Lord, I guess I lasted longer
Than most folks thought I would
Overworked and underpaid
And so misunderstood
I suffered from the burden
Of an excess of extremes
But I made it through the desert
With a canteen full of dreams

Lord, I guess I lasted longer
Than most folks thought I would
Overworked and underpaid
And so misunderstood
I suffered from the burden
Of an excess of extremes
But I made it through the desert
With a canteen full of dreams
