[Verse 1] Woke up grinnin’ at the rain Had a tear still in my name Kettle singin’ on the flame Same old hurt, but I play the game My boots hit the plank floor slow Heartache deep, but I let it glow Like a coal down in the coal Burnin’ quiet where the hurt winds go [Pre-Chorus] I been bent, I been beat Still got rhythm in my feet If the ache wants to stay I make room and I sway [Chorus] Oh, my heart runs deep But I still sing sweet Oh, my heart runs deep And it won’t break me I got hurt, I got hurt Still I clap my hands Oh, my heart runs deep But I’m dancin’ when I can (dancin’ when I can) [Verse 2] Caught your shadow in the glass Smiled at how the days can pass Old pain talkin’ in the cracks But I wear it like a lucky badge Got a scar in every chord Got a laugh that asks for more When the whole house feels forlorn I kick the door and hear the porch [Pre-Chorus] I been bent, I been beat Still got rhythm in my feet If the ache wants to stay I make room and I sway [Chorus] Oh, my heart runs deep But I still sing sweet Oh, my heart runs deep And it won’t break me I got hurt, I got hurt Still I clap my hands Oh, my heart runs deep But I’m dancin’ when I can (dancin’ when I can) [Bridge] Let it ring, let it roll Let the night work on my soul I got sorrow in my pocket And a grin I can’t control No, I ain’t been spared I just learned to breathe the air If the pain wants to stay I’ll make a seat and pray [Chorus] Oh, my heart runs deep But I still sing sweet Oh, my heart runs deep And it won’t break me I got hurt, I got hurt Still I clap my hands Oh, my heart runs deep But I’m dancin’ when I can (dancin’ when I can)
