Stone In My Pocket

There's a stone in my pocket that bears your name

It feels like a locked up hurricane

There are tears that will not stop once they start

In the stone in the pocket of my heart

In a world here without you every day

I'm telling everybody that I'm okay

With the weight of an anchor in the dark

Like a stone in the pocket of my heart

I can't break it, I can't shake it

Looks like this pain is here to stay

I can't lose it, I didn't choose it

And God knows I can't throw it away

There's a stone in my pocket that bears your name

Feels like a locked up hurricane

There are tears that will not stop once they start

In the stone in the pocket of my heart

Well-meaning people (well-meaning people) they try to help me (they try to help me)

They just can't stand to see my pain (and baby)

I'm not courageous, I've got to brave this

My life will never be the same

With the stone in my pocket that bears your name (a pocket of mine)

It feels like a locked up hurricane

There are tears that will not stop (will not stop) once they start

In the stone in the pocket of my heart

Got a tear in my jacket, a nail in my shoe

Got a hole in my soul you could drive a truck through

It's a new kind of normal in an old shade of blue

I'm a mess but I guess that's the best I can do

There's a stone in my pocket that bears your name

I walk around draggin' this ball and chain

There are tears that will not stop once they start

In the stone in the pocket of my heart

There's a stone in my pocket that bears your name

Feels like a locked up hurricane

There are tears that will not stop once they start

Baby, like it or not, gotta roll with the rock

It's a stone in the pocket of my heart
