Like A Stone Lyrics

Title: Like A Stone

On a cold wet

afternoon

no room for love and emptiness

by a freeway

i confess i was lost in the pages

of a book

full of death

reading how we'll die alone

and if a god will lay to rest

anywhere we want to go

in your house

i long to be

room by room

patiently

i'll wait for you there

like a stone

alone

and on my death bed

i will prey

to the gods and the angels

like a pagan

to anyone who will take me to heaven

to a place

i would recall

i was there so long ago

the sky was bruised

the world was black

and there you led me on

liek a stone

in all i read

till the day was gone

and i sat in regret

in all the things i've done

for all that i've blessed

and all that i've wronged

in dreams till my death

i will wonder on
