George Jones - Tied To A Stone lyrics

I woke up this morning And prayed to God, oh, let it be a dream Her side of the bed was cold And layin' there beside me was her ring With a note that she had left for me Layin' where she used to lay her head And I felt the world fall in on me For this is what she said. Tied to a stone Ain't no way to live I can't go on Livin' like this I'd rather be lonely And face life alone Than to go on this way, Day after day Tied to a stone. I always thought I gave her Everything that any girl could want The diamonds on her fingers A new car and a big two-story home Oh, but home became a prison And lookin' back now I can see it all Oh, I'd give the world if I could change the things That made her climb that wall. She said, Tied to a stone Ain't no way to live I can't go on Livin' like this I'd rather be lonely And face life alone Than to go on this way, Day after day Tied to a stone. I'd rather be lonely And face life alone Than to go on this way, Day after day Tied to a stone...
