Like A Stone

alone

i'll wait for you there

like a stone

i'll wait for you there

patiently

room by room

i long to be

in your house



and there you led me on

the wine was bled

the sky was bruised

i was there so long ago

i recall

to a place

to anyone who will take me to heaven

like a pagan

to the gods and the angels

i will pray

and on my death bed



alone

i'll wait for you there

like a stone

i'll wait for you there

patiently

room by room

i long to be

in your house



anywhere we want to go

and if we're good we'll lay to rest

reading how we'll die alone

full of death

of a book

i confess i was lost in the pages

by a freeway

in a room full of emptiness

On a cobweb afternoon

and on i read

until the day was done

and i sat in regret

of all the things i've done

for all that i've blessed

and all that i've wronged

in dreams until my death

i will wander on



in your house

i long to be

room by room

patiently

i'll wait for you there

like a stone

i'll wait for you there

alone

alone
