stan ridgway – man of stone lyrics
it could have been a million years ago or maybe yesterday
i crawled out of this wilderness, a debt i had to pay
i must have tipped the scales somewhere way back
never saw the seeds i’d sewn
so now i travel backwards looking for a man of stone
a foggy night, a neon light… i’ve seen him standing there
movin’ where the shadows creep¨c¨cno he never did play fair
and one night i almost got him, but i knew you’d tapped my phone
and communication is dangerous, lookin’ for a man of stone
with juan in argentina i thought i saw him in the street
in a seaplane over hydra he sat in the captain’s seat
and i’ve chased him from the colosseum down the spanish steps in rome
and history just gets hazy lookin’ for a man of stone
in the mornin’ out your i saw him leanin’ on a tree
wearin’ a snappy suit of grey and then he motioned to me
he pointed with his finger, as if to say my soul he owned
but i had sold that long ago to you lookin’ for a man of stone
now i sit in this burnt out barn they call the raven’s nest
drinkin’ bl–dy monkeys, your name tattooed on my chest
sometimes i think of juan or you¨c¨cor sometimes i think of hime
and sometimes i don’t think of anything but lookin’ for (that’s right) a man of stone
