Stones Lyrics

All of the polished stones

Skip across the river just fine

But down in the undertow

I'm gonna see some old friends of mine

In the hardest soil

Rainfall takes some time to sink in

And even the tallest pines

Bend hard with the Northern wind

And sometimes the most

Adventurous tales

Take a long time to begin

All the problems that got my number

We're gonna send 'em off

Falls with the rain and the thunder

Over my rooftop

And I know we've all been told

Ya gotta stick with your five year plan

Cause your ship's already sailed

And got grounded on drier lands

Waiting for a stronger wind

To get you back to where you wish you had started

And sometimes the weight of the world

Leaves you broke and broken hearted

And I know it hurts

I've been there too

It takes a long time

To get started

All the problems that got my number

We're gonna send 'em off

Falls with the rain and the thunder

Over my rooftop

I get the feeling I can't do this alone

And I'm building my own road

Stone by stone
