I Saw a Stone Lyrics

i saw a stone
cradled by the earth.
because it was one i had known,
i started digging
through the dirt

until both of my hands
grew tired from the work.
oh, i dug patiently,
and i dug eagerly.

this was my home.
here stood my home.

i feel at home here in the dirt.
and i've been breaking my bones
for what it's worth.

oh. i wanted someone here.
oh, i needed someone here
to wash my dirty hands.
and to help me rebuild.

you were there while i was building
saying, "i am good."
now I'm here and you're still watching
saying, "i am good."
