Love Is A Stone Once I believed that love was a fire Burning up hearts with our foolish desires And love was a wave that pounded the shore Drew back exhausted - then came back for more Once I believed that love was the sand Free and elusive, it slipped through my hand And love was the thunder that rolled through the sky Leaving me breathless, and wondering why CHORUS Now I believe that love is a stone Quietly waiting for me to come home Tempered by fire, and worn smooth by the waves Strong as your arms at the end of my day Love is a stone with its rough edges gone Gently resisting the sweet river song And love is a rock planted deep in the earth Slow as the season from d**h until birth You are the river, and you are the song You are the fire - I've learned to be strong You are the wave that rocks me to sleep You are the earth that cradles me deep CHORUS
