Lyrics

I held that stone in the palm of my hand
Walking alone on the shore of Lake Michigan
And I swear the Earth let out a sigh of relief
As the waves broke and washed over my feet
And the wind, she came and whispered to me
"The Earth is tired, it's been a long century"
And I said, "What can I do? I am only just me"
She said, "Don't do it all, just do something
Please
Please"
Twenty-seven years, I've been alive
And I've watched things change right in front of my eyes
We took what we wanted and left nothing in return
So that future generations are left with nothing but crash and burn
Now where will our children go to find
A bit of pure water and peace of mind
With so much to do, I might not live to see the change
But I'm counting on you to do something
Please
Please
Now I hold that stone close to my chest
As I walk down the shore close to sunset
And I swear the Earth took in a breath of hope
The sky turned red, and I walked home
And the wind came, and as she went by
She said, carry that stone and remember to try
Please, please
Please, please
