a stone in the middle of the screen
Watch the ripples as they grow
Making waves,
so it's been with you and me
Is this as far as we can go?
Oh, we're just a stone's
throw from heaven
But a whole lot closer to heaven
And the rising tide of the sliding tide
Keeps dragging us down
Still I know there's a chance that we could
plant both feet on the ground
Maybe that's why I keep on hanging
around
Yesterday took a while to get us here
And today seems just as long
To morrow's dreams are far away,
but yet so near
If we could only right the wrong
Oh, we're just a stone's
throw from heaven
But a whole lot closer to heaven
And the lonely chimes
of the wasted times
Have taken their toll
And woman, how could we let such a good
thing get so out of control?
Reach out your hand while there's
something to hold
Oh, woman, how could we let such a
good thing get so out of control?
Reach out your hand while there's
something to hold
Something to hold
We're just a stone's
throw from heaven
But a whole lot closer to hell
And the rising tide of swine and pride
Keeps dragging us down
Still I know there's a chance
That we could plant our
feet on the ground
We're just a stone's
throw from heaven
Gonna hold right close to the hill
And the longer time,
the more wasted time
I'm taking that toll
That woman,
I could be like such a good man
Getting so out of control
