Linda Connell Studley: Music
Bed of Stones
Every night I lay me down upon this bed of stones
Every stone has a story and a heartache of its own
There’s a stone for every time you lied
And a stone for every time I cried
And a great big stone for when you said good-bye,
on my bed of stones
Every night I lay me down upon this bed of stones
Every stone has a story and a heartache of its own
There’s a stone for every broken dream,
every promise that you made to meAnd a whole lot of little stones in between,
on my bed of stonesI’m gonna take those stones
I’m gonna build four walls
Gonna build them strong
Gonna build them tall
Gonna top it all off with a big strong roof
Gonna make that house so heartache proof
That I’ll never have to lay me down again
upon no bed of stones
Oh but every night some woman lays herself down
upon a bed of stones
