At the end of the day when all is still
I've earned my pay, like I always will
My job is done, no more wells to fill..................
But who will be there for me?
I have chosen a path that is long and hard
My mind is spent, and my soul is scarred
I've learned that I never let down my guard..................
But there's nobody there for me;
It's a difficult task but I do my best
To comfort those who are weak and stressed
The nightmares come and I find no rest...................
Is there nobody there for me?
Perhaps there's a place where the soul finds peace
At the end of this road when the trials all cease
And the spirit soars high with a sweet release..............
I'll be free if you're there for me.
