A Stone's Throw from the Soul - Mary Black

Love showed me it’s riches late last spring

Took me to it’s breast and gave me wings

I truly did believe

And still I was deceived

Love made me it’s witness one fine spring

Life seemed dark and beautiful at once

All mixed upside down and back to front

It was hard to know what’s what

The light went on and off

Life was stark and plentiful at once

Maybe time really does heal wounds

Maybe love doesn’t know

A mere heartbeat from happiness

A stone’s throw from the soul

Days lived with a will

Days as fine as can be

Days grace on my morning pillow

Days I’m longing to see

Sunlight blows the winter one last kiss

Me I hold my breath and make my wish

We live through thick and thin

Where evil sometimes wins

Me I try my best and think of this

That maybe time really does heal wounds

And maybe love doesn’t know

A mere heartbeat from happiness

A stone’s throw from the sould
