Lou Heffernan - Smoothing A Rough Stone - Remastered Lyrics

At seventeen I knew the answers to all the questions in my mind
I knew it all yet couldn't understand why the rest of the world was so blind

You'd never catch me sayin', "I don't know"
Thought only fools admit they're weak
I build a fortress 'round my little world
I was a rock
Or so it seemed

But life has a way of smoothing a rough stone or crushing it into sand
I'm learnin' when to go with the flow and when to take a stand
Life has a way of smoothing a rough
Life has a way of smoothing a rough
Life has a way of smoothing a rough stone

Through the years I've built my share of walls but never found security
I was the ruler of my little world
But I still had to live there with me

And life has a way of smoothing a rough stone or crushing it into sand
I'm learnin' when to go with the flow and when to take a stand
Life has a way of smoothing a rough
Life has a way of smoothing a rough
Life has a way of smoothing a rough stone

And life is workin' on me
I may never be a polished gem but life is smoother than it used to be

And life has a way of smoothing a rough
Life has a way of smoothing a rough
Life has a way of smoothing a rough stone

Life has a way of smoothing a rough stone
