Stone

 


© Michael Fredman 2006

Lyrics:

 

I lost the best thing I ever had
she drove me wild
drove me mad
made me happy
but made me sad
about as sad as I could be

then all at once,
I was alone
a disconnected telephone
and down I sank
just like a stone
to the bottom of the sea

where no-one could find me

It's where I am
it's where I'll be

And if you turn around
if you turn around
you just might
see me

I lost the worst thing
I ever loved
velvet handed
iron gloved
a great white shark
or turtle dove
I really couldn't see

then all at once
she was alone
I turned off my telephone
and then I walked
the long way home
along the coast
down by the sea

where no-one could find me

it's where I am
it's where i'll be

And when you turn around
and when you turn around
you just might
see me

Would you rather we never had met?

Had nothing to forget

and no ring to pawn

just an empty dawn

without me at all

honey, don't you turn around
don't turn around
or you just might
see me
