Lyrics
Went out for a drink
With a friend from a while back
Her triumphs and trials ringing
Clearer than my phone
And that drink turned into three
Happy hour into bedtime
You were drowning in your head when I came
Floating home
Babe are you ok?
I was only a stone's throw away
You shook as you recounted
Your flight of fancy
That crashed when I didn't answer
Your distress signal
And you wondered aloud
If you were better off without me
On some distant mountain
In complete control
Lonely but safe
Now I'm just a stone's throw away
When we let it fly
Babe it hurts like hell
Gotta set our sights
On someone else
The throes of love
Are unrelenting
Sometimes a common enemy
Is your best friend
Look we may be a lot
But we're not as much as they are
Bet she'd rather she never
Heard him call again
When the seeds that we've sown
Are choking on stones
Remember the neighbors
They're only a stone's throw away
