| She left town early on a Friday
|
| Headin' down to family in New Orleans
|
| Said she needed to feel the sun on her face
|
| Talk it out with herself
|
| Try to get things straight
|
| Lord, all I know is I don’t wanna breathe
|
| I wish I was cold as stone
|
| Then I wouldn’t feel a thing
|
| I wish I didn’t have this heart
|
| Then I wouldn’t know the sting of the rain
|
| I could stand strong and still
|
| Watching you walk away
|
| I wouldn’t hurt like this
|
| Or feel so all alone
|
| I wish I was cold as stone
|
| Almost turned around in Mississippi
|
| Pulled over on the shoulder along the way
|
| Thought by now, I’d be fine
|
| But all these tears are blurring every line
|
| And I think back to when you were mine
|
| I wish I was cold as stone
|
| Then I wouldn’t feel a thing
|
| I wish I didn’t have this heart
|
| Then I wouldn’t know the sting of the rain
|
| I could stand on my own
|
| Letting your memory fade
|
| I wouldn’t hurt like this
|
| Or feel so all alone
|
| I wish I was cold as stone
|
| Yeah, it’s gonna take forever to get over you
|
| Oh, and I don’t think this pain’s gonna go away
|
| Oh, scars left when it’s said and done remain
|
| I wish I was cold as stone
|
| I wish I was cold as stone
|
| I wish I was cold as stone
|
| Then I wouldn’t feel a thing
|
| I wish I didn’t have this heart
|
| Then I wouldn’t know the sting of the rain
|
| I could stand strong and still
|
| Watching you walk away
|
| I wouldn’t hurt like this
|
| Or feel so all alone
|
| I wish I was cold as stone
|
| I wish I was cold as stone |
