"Stone's Throw" lyrics
"Stone's Throw"
Went out for a drink with a
Friend from a while back, her
Triumphs and trials
Ringing clearer than my phone
And that drink turned into three, happy
Hour into bedtime
You were drowning in your head
When I came floating home
Babe, are you okay?
I was only a stone's throw away
You shook as you recounted your
Flight of fancy that
Crashed when I didn't answer
Your distress signal
And you wondered aloud if you were
Better off without me on some
Distant mountain
In complete control
Lonely but safe
Now I'm just a stone's throw away
When we let it fly
Babe it hurts like hell
Gotta set our sights
On someone else
The throes of love
Are unrelenting
Sometimes a common enemy is
Your best friend
Look we may be a lot but we're
Not as much as they are, bet she'd
Rather she never heard him
Call again
When the seeds that we've sown
Are choking on stones
Remember the neighbors
They're only a stone's throw away
