Oh I'm workin' my way up to the bottom fighting back the tears that never stop
Yes I'm workin' my way up to the bottom
And I won't need you when I'll reach the top

When you left the bottom just fell out from under me
Like a nightmare I kept fallin' endlessly
When I stopped I found a place so dark and lonely
But the light of hope now I can almost see
And I'm workin' my way up...
[ steel ]
Take away a blind man's cane you'll leave him helpless
That's what happened when you let go off my hand
As you turned away my arms reached out to hold you
And I fell into a well of pain as you ran
But now I'm workin' my way up...
Oh I'm workin' my way up...
