Lyrics
Restless days and bourbon soaked nights
I get lost in reminiscing
Sorting through my jigsaw past
There are so many pieces missing
Friends and lovers come and gone
Like fireworks in a blaze
I miss her smile, I miss those days
Chorus:
Stones ... So many things I could have done
Those little words I didn't say
Stones... So many chances I let pass
As pride got in my way
Stones, so many stones
Travel trunks all tattered and torn
Packed with dreams to overflowing
Fragments of our shattered past
Was there no way to stop her going?
Was I careless with her heart?
Blind to her needs
Distant somehow
If I had known then what I know now
Chorus:
Stones ... So many things I could have done
Those little words I didn't say
Stones... So many chances I let pass
As pride got in my way
All those stones I left unturned
Stones, so many stones
Bridge:
Now I would move a mountain
Clear a canyon floor
Leave no stone unturned
To be with you and hold you close once more
Chorus:
Stones ... So many things I could have done
Those little words I didn't say
Stones... So many chances I let pass
As pride got in my way
All those stones I left unturned
So much water passed beneath those bridges I have burned
Stones, so many stones
Stones
Stones
