Free As Stone - Mary Black

Phone calls and taxi-rides

And somebody’s leaving

Misunderstandings get out of control

And the right words get left

And the wrong words get spoken

He’s gone but not your pride

Not much can help

The full heart that’s breaking

Can’t find the words

And you can’t hide the feelings

And it’s down to the bone

To the heart of the matter

You’re free free as stone

Look at you now

You’re the picture of sorrow

Head in your hands

Like a scene from a movie

And all of the things

That seemed so important

Are leaves and are blowing away

Nothing can help

The full heart that’s breaking

You can’t find the words

And you can’t hide the feelings

And it’s down to the bone

To the heart of the matter

You’re free free as stone

Walk through this town

On a cold Sunday morning

Soldiers in uniforms

Guns in their hands

The world all caught up

With barbed wire fences

I’m free I’m free as stone

Oh nothing can help

The full heart that’s breaking

Won’t find the words

And you can’t hide the feelings

And it’s down to bone

To the heart of the matter

You’re free free as stone

You’re free free as stone
