Cold As Stone

[00:24.33] She left town early on a Friday
[00:31.80] Headin' down to family in New Orleans
[00:38.66] Said she needed to feel the sun on her face
[00:43.19] Talk it out with herself
[00:45.47] Try to get things straight
[00:50.19] Lord, all I know is I don't wanna breathe
[00:57.44] I wish I was cold as stone
[01:01.20] Then I wouldn't feel a thing
[01:05.21] I wish I didn't have this heart
[01:09.69] Then I wouldn't know the sting of the rain
[01:12.91] I could stand strong and still
[01:16.92] Watching you walk away
[01:20.90] I wouldn't hurt like this
[01:23.33] Or feel so all alone
[01:27.25] I wish I was cold as stone
[01:32.49]
[01:36.80] Almost turned around in Mississippi
[01:43.72] Pulled over on the shoulder along the way
[01:51.82] Thought by now, I'd be fine
[01:55.85] But all these tears are blurring every line
[02:02.32] And I think back to when you were mine
[02:06.76] I wish I was cold as stone
[02:10.40] Then I wouldn't feel a thing
[02:14.30] I wish I didn't have this heart
[02:18.65] Then I wouldn't know the sting of the rain
[02:21.98] I could stand on my own
[02:25.79] Then your memory fades
[02:30.05] I wouldn't hurt like this
[02:32.44] Or feel so all alone
[02:36.14] I wish I was cold as stone
[02:41.69]
[02:44.94] Yeah, it's gonna take forever to get over you
[02:52.54] Oh, and I don't think this pain's gonna go away
[03:00.38] Oh, scars left when it's said and done remain
[03:14.30]
[03:19.64] I wish I was cold as stone
[03:23.31] I wish I was cold as stone
[03:27.37] I wish I was cold as stone
[03:31.32] Then I wouldn't feel a thing
[03:35.12] I wish I didn't have this heart
[03:39.44] Then I wouldn't know the sting of the rain
[03:42.86] I could stand strong and still
[03:46.57] Watching you walk away
[03:50.79] It wouldn't hurt like this
[03:53.28] Or feel so all alone
[03:58.02] I wish I was cold as stone
[04:01.72] I wish I was cold as stone
[04:05.65]
