Rolling Stone

[Lyrics: Beth Malcolm]

Here is a heart 

Here is my heart 

And I’ll give it to you, I’ll tear it in two 

Here is a life 

Here is my life 

And I’ll give it to you, I’ll break it in two 

And I always thought love would come slow 

I never needed a home 

I always thought I’d be a rolling stone 

I always thought I’d be a rolling stone 

Here is a mind 

Here is my mind 

And I’ll bear it to you 

And I’ll mind your bruises too 

Here is a hand 

Here is my hand 

And I’ll work them to you 

And I’ll cool you down when we’re through 

And I always thought love would come slow 

I never needed a home 

I always thought I’d be a rolling stone 

And I always thought love was just a scheme 

For ego and comfort and self-esteem 

I always thought I’d be content being free 

I always thought I’d be content being free 

The more I’ve come to know 

The more I’ve come to know  

The more I’ve come to know you 

The less I’ve felt I owed you 

So I left my bed on the ocean floor 

And to my great surprise  

As I washed up in the night 

Your tides they led to the shore 

And that’s how the stone found home 

I always thought I’d be a rolling stone 

And I always thought love would come slow 

I never needed a home 

I always thought I’d be a rolling stone 

And I always thought love was just a scheme 

For ego and comfort and self-esteem 

I always thought I’d be content being free 

I always thought I’d be content being free 

And I always thought love was just a bind 

A willing ensnarement of body and mind 

I never hoped it would be you by my side 

I never thought that I’d find you in time
