Stone's Throw

Uriah Heep · Other Songs - Uriah Heep

I was a stone's throw

From happiness

Feeling love grow in your caress

It was like nothing

I had felt or seen

And I waited impatiently

Oh, stone's throw

And I can't stand to see you go

You hurt me bad, cut me down

But it just don't work without you

Without you around

It was a short walk

Now it's a lonely ride

It turned my day

Into a lifeless night

It was my belief and

Now it's my regret

I've got a one way ticket

That I can't accept

Oh, just a stone's throw

And I can't stand to see you go

You hurt me bad

You cut me down

But it just don't work without you

Without, without, without

Without you around

Oh, stone's throw

And I can't stand to see you go

You hurt me bad, cut me down

But it just don't work without you

Gotta have you around

Gotta have you around ...
