I've been living with the pain so long I've been gaining on you
Gaining on you all of the time
What did not kill me made me stronger
If I live any longer I know I'm gonna blow sky-high
I drip dry
I drip dry
I drip, drip dry
I drip dry
You can watch and wish me well it's true
But who can really tell what's gonna make or break a woman inside
Oh the secret to my power comes in my darkest hour
I fell down on my knees and I cry
Drip dry
I drip dry
Drip, drip dry
I drip dry
It's true I never learned to pray in an ordinary way
I must say this I will never deny
When my soul is in despair I say this little prayer
I say "Tell me what Lord, tell me why"
I drip dry
I drip dry
Drip, drip dry
I drip dry
Someday my heart is gonna stop
I'm standin' at the top of a mountain never thought I could climb
Yes and on the other side love is not divided
I put my troubles out on the line
I drip dry
I drip dry
I drip, drip dry
I drip dry
