Daniel Amos
Stone Away
[Verse 1]
Just as I was leaving
Just as I stopped feeling
And just as I was dying
And every word denying
I felt the wound
Saw the empty room
'Cause you had flown away

[Verse 2]
And just when I was sleeping
And just as I stopped breathing
And just when I'd grown colder
And thought that it was over
Felt kingdom come
Blood on my tongue
Rolls the stone away

[Chorus]
Now you fall like a shadow I cannot touch
And faith is half the battle, I don't have much
Roll the stone away
Roll the stone away

[Verse 3]
Just as worlds were ending
And just when I was winning
And just as the door was closing
And just as my hand was folding
The whole earth shakes
The stronghold breaks
So you can fly away

[Chorus]
Now you fall like a shadow I cannot touch
And faith is half the battle, I don't have much
Roll the stone away
Roll the stone away

[Verse 4]
Well, it's good to know
You own my soul
And you have flown away

[Verse 5]
So how can I deny you
When I've walked beside you?
Well, I'm just a coward crawling
And I am an angel falling
Oh, carry me
And bury me
Then roll the stone away

[Chorus]
Now you fall like a shadow I cannot touch
And faith is half the battle, I don't have much
So roll the stone away
Roll the stone away
So roll the stone away
Roll the stone away
Roll the stone away
So roll the stone away
Roll the stone away
Roll the stone away
