Box Of Stones
Benjamin Francis Leftwich
My harbor has a boat in it
The water makes its way around it,
When the sun shines down the hills, winds blow
I miss you more
You said I'm young, but I'm yours
I am free, but I am flawed
I'm here in your heart
I was here from the start
The forest had a rock in it
Roots and animals were blocked by it,
When they turned all their bones, they changed to stone
They've lost their faith
You said I'm young and I'm yours
I am free, but I am flawed
I'm here in your heart
I was here from the start
Then when the rain came and settled on your skin
Not like before and you let it all in
To your heart was the only part
From the start you said upon.
You said I'm young and I'm yours
I am free, but I am flawed
I'm here in your heart
I was here from the start
