the man who came to dinner i swear
he ate just about everyting on his plate
well he was my date
the lady who sat across from me
she swore oh she thought she'd seen me before
and i reminded her of this particular guy
the guy she thought that i might be
was the one eating everything sitting next to me
funny i, i never knew she was blind

cause half the time my mind is off and running
running for my life, tripping out in the open
half the time my heart can hardly stand it
standing on it's own, tripping over the ocean
like a cold, cold stone
just a cold, cold-hearted stone, stone

well i never thought i'd ever want to see a pretty woman
in the ? like that oh the clothes she wore
with her heart sewn on her shoulder
and i never thought i'd ever want to look into her eyes
and realize that i too might be blind
by god i'm just a son of a bitch who's blind

cause half the time my mind is off and running
running for my life, tripping out in the open
but half the time my heart can hardly stand it
standing on it's own, it's tripping over the ocean
like a cold, cold stone
just a cold, cold-hearted stone, stone

can anyone commit to an interesting relationship
that's fit for two, or more
you know that's up to you
whether you're fit as a fiddle
there's somethin in the middle
well it divides you and i
and it's love you, i love you, i love you, i...lied
to keep my fantasy alive
well all my miracles have died and now my pain is brown and dry
so it's bye bye, bye bye, bye bye cold, cold stone
bye bye bye, bye bye, bye bye stone
you see i'm just a cold, cold-hearted stone, stone
