(Diamond/Zero)

I came riding in from over the rise

the town down below 

baking in the sun

you’re there laid to rest 

and I’m here to pay my last respects

and not forget

 

A Rose for Your Stone 

a rose for your stone 

is all that I have to give to you

 

We were so young back when we started

I knew that I would leave you broken hearted

and what was in store were some things 
that I’m glad you never saw 

outside the law

 

A Rose for Your Stone 

the only way out was alone 

with dreams of the girl I left behind

a rose for your stone 

and the life I could have known 

was lost as the years 

went flying by 

 

I chose this life for me 

so no regrets 

how it turned out for me 

was as bad as it gets

 

A Rose for Your Stone 

a rose for your stone 

is all that I have to give to you 

 

I’ve made up my mind 

and I’m leaving it behind 

no more of the life 

I left you for
