Cold As Stone - Lady A

She left town early on a Friday

Headin' down to family in New Orleans

Said she needed to feel the sun on her face

Talk it out with herself

Try to get things straight

Lord, all I know is I don’t wanna breathe

I wish I was cold as stone

Then I wouldn’t feel a thing

I wish I didn’t have this heart

Then I wouldn’t know the sting of the rain

I could stand strong and still

Watching you walk away

I wouldn’t hurt like this

Or feel so all alone

I wish I was cold as stone

Almost turned around in Mississippi

Pulled over on the shoulder along the way

Thought by now, I’d be fine

But all these tears are blurring every line

And I think back to when you were mine

I wish I was cold as stone

Then I wouldn’t feel a thing

I wish I didn’t have this heart

Then I wouldn’t know the sting of the rain

I could stand on my own

Letting your memory fade

I wouldn’t hurt like this

Or feel so all alone

I wish I was cold as stone

Yeah, it’s gonna take forever to get over you

Oh, and I don’t think this pain’s gonna go away

Oh, scars left when it’s said and done remain

I wish I was cold as stone

I wish I was cold as stone

I wish I was cold as stone

Then I wouldn’t feel a thing

I wish I didn’t have this heart

Then I wouldn’t know the sting of the rain

I could stand strong and still

Watching you walk away

I wouldn’t hurt like this

Or feel so all alone

I wish I was cold as stone

I wish I was cold as stone
