Billy Forrest - Chiselled in Stone Lyrics

You ran crying to the bedroom
I ran off to the bar
Another piece of heaven
Gone to hell

Those words we spoke in anger
Just tore my world apart
And I sat there feeling sorry
For myself

Then an old man sat down beside me
And looked me in the eye
He said, son
I know what you're going through

You ought to get down on your knees
And thank your lucky stars
That you've got someone
To go home to

You don't know about lonely
Or how long nights can be
Till you've been through the story
That's still living in me

You don't know about sadness
Till you've faced life alone
You don't know about lonely
Till it's chiseled in stone

So I brought these pretty flowers
Hoping you would understand
Sometimes a man
Is such a fool

Those golden words of wisdom
From the heart of that old man
Showed me I ain't nothing
Without you

You don't know about lonely
Or how long nights can be
Till you've been through the story
That old man just told me

And you don't know about sadness
Till you've faced life alone
You don't know about lonely
Till it's chiseled in stone

You don't know about lonely
Till it's chiseled in stone
