All of the polished stones Skip across the river just fine But down in the undertow I'm gonna see some old friends of mine In the hardest soil Rainfall takes some time to sink in And even the tallest pines Bend hard with the Northern wind And sometimes the most Adventurous tales Take a long time to begin All the problems that got my number We're gonna send 'em off Falls with the rain and the thunder Over my rooftop And I know we've all been told Ya gotta stick with your five year plan Cause your ship's already sailed And got grounded on drier lands Waiting for a stronger wind To get you back to where you wish you had started And sometimes the weight of the world Leaves you broke and broken hearted And I know it hurts I've been there too It takes a long time To get started All the problems that got my number We're gonna send 'em off Falls with the rain and the thunder Over my rooftop I get the feeling I can't do this alone And I'm building my own road Stone by stone
