Roll The Stone Away

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You can swim in this old river

It's been delivered

Since the factory shut down

And like the river I'm waiting

For resurrection

Since I lost your affection

And love left town

There'll be no more crying

There's no one left to blame

Love will come out standing

So roll that stone away

We were good

But we could have been better

And the best is what we're after

When it comes right down to love

You were always the strong one

Bright as the setting sun

Go shine somewhere else my love

Some brand new world (some brand new world)

There'll be no more crying

There's no one left to blame

Love will come out standing

So roll that stone away

And like that river I'm waiting

For resurrection

Since I lost your affection

And love left town (and love left town)

There'll be no more crying

There's no one left to blame

Love will come out standing

So roll that stone roll that stone

Roll that stone away
