Lynn King
Heart Like A Stone (original version)
Lyrics
Verse
Heart like a stone just tossed into the river it’s hard to teach a stone how to swim
I could drown inside my sorrow sink down into my tears
Or stand tall on wounded pride and cast aside my lonely fears

Chorus

I could blame it on fate I could blame it on love
I could blame it on you or I could rise above
It’s not the first time not the last time to withstand a lovers knife
Come on make your mark and I’ll chalk it up to life

Verse

Momma didn’t raise no quitter inside this little girl
Oh I’ve had to fight tooth and nail to try to get ahead in this mans world
So you can keep the book of love just give me back my love torn pages
Cause I have yet to find a lover who can rock me through the ages

Repeat chorus

Bridge
Time will always haunt you with the chances you don’t
And emptiness will find you in the love we never make

Chorus
You could blame it on fate you could blame it on love
You could blame it on me or you could rise above
It’s not the first time not the last time to withstand a lovers knife…
Come on make your mark and I’ll chalk it up to life
Chalk it up to life__________
