Lyrics: He's just the kind of man You hear about Who leaves his family For an easy out They never saw the signs He never said a word He couldn't take another day Carry me to the shoreline Bury me in the sand Walk me across the water And maybe you'll understand Once the stone You're crawling under Is lifted off your shoulders Once the cloud that's raining Over you head disappears The noise that you'll hear Is the crashing down of hollow years She's not the kind of girl You hear about She'll never want another She'll never be without She'll give you all the signs She'll tell you everything Then turn around and walk away Carry me to the shoreline Bury me in the sand Walk me across the water And maybe you'll understand Once the stone You're crawling under Is lifted off your shoulders Once the cloud that's raining Over you head disappears The noise that you'll hear Is the crashing down of hollow years Carry me to the shoreline Bury me in the sand Walk me across the water And maybe you'll understand Once the stone You're crawling under Is lifted off your shoulders Once the cloud that's raining Over you head disappears The noise that you'll hear Is the crashing down of hollow years
