I've been throwing stones, waiting by the river
I've been on my own, praying like a sinner
You've been gone too long, I'm waiting out the winter
I've been on my knees, praying like, praying like a sinnerWell you've built a city right in me
And brick by brick and piece by piece
And love in both your hands
Try to make an honest man
From when I woke until I went to sleep
You planned my life so carefully
Sculpted me like clay, I can see you in my faceAnd I never thought I'd live this life without your guiding lightI've been throwing stones, waiting by the river
I've been on my own, praying like a sinner
You've been gone too long, I'm waiting out the winter
I've been on my knees, praying like, praying like a sinnerAnd I heard the walls are paper thin
From where you are to where I am
But I don't feel a thing
If you are, keep pulling strings
And send on down a message please
Light a boat, go home my dreams
I'd just like to know
That you hear me, that you're closeAnd I never thought I'd live this life without your guiding lightI've been throwing stones, waiting by the river
I've been on my own, praying like a sinner
You've been gone too long, I'm waiting out the winter
I've been on my knees, praying like, praying like a sinnerYou've been gone for too long
You've been gone for too longI've been throwing stones, waiting by the river
I've been on my own, praying like a sinner
You've been gone too long, I'm waiting out the winter
I've been on my knees, praying likeI've been throwing stones, waiting by the river
I've been on my own, praying like a sinner
You've been gone too long, I'm waiting out the winter
I've been on my knees, praying like, praying like a sinner
Praying like a sinnerI've been throwing stones, waiting by the river
I've been on my own, praying like a sinner
You've been gone too long, I'm waiting out the winter
And I've been on my knees, praying like, praying like a sinner
