Lee Hazlewood Stone Lost Child
She's a stone lost child,
Lord, you know she doesn't know what's right.
She's a stone lost child
Sleeping in some new bed tonight
Running from shadows she thinks of me
Pretending things that she will never be
So God, if you have ever done anything right
Watch over that stone lost child for me tonight.
She's a stone lost child,
Running naked when her clothes are new
She's a stone lost child,
Giving all she has to quite a few
Living on dreams of others, slightly used.
Loving their sons and brothers just to confuse
So God, if you have ever done anything right
watch over that stone lost child for me tonight.
She's a stone lost child,
Free to try it in the ice and snow.
She's a stone lost child,
Free to love me like she did before.
So give her baby kisses when she cries
And wisdom to forgive all my lies
And God, if you have ever done anything right
watch over that stone lost child for me tonight.
