Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, it's such a strange world that I'm livin' in
She was my woman and he was my friend, but I was wrong again
Such a strange changes that you put me through
But like a fool I'm still in love with you, what can this poor boy do?
[Verse 2]
Roll away the stone
Don't leave me here alone
Resurrect me and protect me
Don't leave me layin' here
What will they do in two thousand years? Yeah
[Verse 3]
It's such strange times that we are passin' through
I thought you'd tell me when your time was due
I guess you thought I knew
Whoa, strange way to keep avoiding me
Why did you lie, how could I help but be, oh, won't you help me be?
[Verse 4]
Roll away the stone
Don't leave me here alone
Resurrect me and protect me
Don't leave me layin' here
What will they do in two thousand years? Yeah
[Verse 5]
Roll away the stone
Don't leave me here alone
Roll away, roll away the stone
Roll away the stone
[Verse 6]
Roll away, roll away, roll away the stone
Roll away the stone
Roll away, roll away the stone
Roll away the stone
Roll away, roll away the stone
