Stone In My Pocket

There's a stone in my pocket that bears your name It feels like a locked up hurricane There are tears that will not stop once they start In the stone in the pocket of my heart In a world here without you every day I'm telling everybody that I'm okay With the weight of an anchor in the dark Like a stone in the pocket of my heart I can't break it, I can't shake it Looks like this pain is here to stay I can't lose it, I didn't choose it And God knows I can't throw it away There's a stone in my pocket that bears your name Feels like a locked up hurricane There are tears that will not stop once they start In the stone in the pocket of my heart Well-meaning people (well-meaning people) they try to help me (they try to help me) They just can't stand to see my pain (and baby) I'm not courageous, I've got to brave this My life will never be the same With the stone in my pocket that bears your name (a pocket of mine) It feels like a locked up hurricane There are tears that will not stop (will not stop) once they start In the stone in the pocket of my heart Got a tear in my jacket, a nail in my shoe Got a hole in my soul you could drive a truck through It's a new kind of normal in an old shade of blue I'm a mess but I guess that's the best I can do There's a stone in my pocket that bears your name I walk around draggin' this ball and chain There are tears that will not stop once they start In the stone in the pocket of my heart There's a stone in my pocket that bears your name Feels like a locked up hurricane There are tears that will not stop once they start Baby, like it or not, gotta roll with the rock It's a stone in the pocket of my heart
