Skipping Stones by Olivia Wendel Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Skipping stones out on the shore
Still not sure what you asked me here for
But I’m scouring the earth on the forest floor
Skipping stones ‘till my arm is sore
And we stand in silence ‘till a quarter to four
‘Till the skies open up and it starts to pour
So we gather up our things and we head to the car
And it doesn’t take long no we don’t get far
[Chorus 1]
‘Till you say you’re not coming home
You’ve got dreams of moving to the coast
I’m sitting here wondering is this how things go
How far can you throw a heart made from stone
[Verse 2]
Staring out the window at thе passing road
Holding it in so I don’t explode
You say I’ll understand whеn I’m not seven years old
That the promise of life isn’t how it was sold
[Chorus 2]
You say you’re not coming home
You’ve got dreams of moving to the coast
I’m sitting here wondering is this how things go
How far can you throw a heart made from stone
Made from stone
Made from stone
Skipping stones out on the shore
Still not sure what you asked me here for
But I’m scouring the earth on the forest floor
Skipping stones ‘till my arm is sore
And we stand in silence ‘till a quarter to four
‘Till the skies open up and it starts to pour
So we gather up our things and we head to the car
And it doesn’t take long no we don’t get far
[Chorus 1]
‘Till you say you’re not coming home
You’ve got dreams of moving to the coast
I’m sitting here wondering is this how things go
How far can you throw a heart made from stone
[Verse 2]
Staring out the window at thе passing road
Holding it in so I don’t explode
You say I’ll understand whеn I’m not seven years old
That the promise of life isn’t how it was sold
[Chorus 2]
You say you’re not coming home
You’ve got dreams of moving to the coast
I’m sitting here wondering is this how things go
How far can you throw a heart made from stone
Made from stone
Made from stone
