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
