Star or Stone - Chris Robinson Brotherhood

I was thirteenth at the table

When the wine was passed around

Amid an air of suspicion

My glance was met with callous frowns

If I was superstitious

I’d be the black cat nobody wants hangin' 'round

Dark whispers in the hallway

Accusations out of bitter mouths

Strange figures in the doorway

A dog barks a drunkard’s laugh

There’s screaming in the kitchen

A glass breaks just then that the lights go out

So let the winter chase butterflies

Let the child believe his lies

Let the road run past my door

I can’t stay here anymore

And I won’t, I won’t turn back

To see my dream burning on the side of the road

'Cause sometimes it just goes like that

Falling or flying, star or stone

Close the window I just can’t hear the highway anymore

Lay beside me and let our fire burn until the dawn

Ooh

Ooh

Telephone was ringing

A heavy price on the line

Outside a window

A comet shoots across the sky

Between love and hope and money, there’s loss and pain and honey

So take a spoonful every time

And if you don’t like what you see

Don’t come running to me

'Cause I’m bound to my own way

I’m one million miles away

And I won’t, I won’t turn back

See my dream burning on the side of the road

'Cause sometimes it just goes like that

Falling or flying, star or stone

No I won’t, I won’t turn back

To see my dream burning on the side of the road

'Cause sometimes it just goes like that

Falling or flying, star or stone
