you were so frightened and alone
in mourning and so sad
I offered you my hand
in friendship
and away you ran

as time went by
we grew closer
and before we knew it
were best of friends

we laughed and we cried
we even laughed til we cried
then one day I looked down
and there it was, .....a rock
the most perfect heartshaped rock

that is when it happened
you know that feeling
like you are turning inside out
and you can barely breathe
that's the one......

without thought
I gave you that rock
said I was giving you my heart
and without thought
you so gracefully took it

oh, the look in your eyes
as I handed that rock to you
just melted me inside
cuz tha's when I knew
you felt it too

could it be the angels
put it there for me
cuz the power I felt
in such a little stone of love
had to come from up above

so as we live out our lives
together every glorious day
I'm reminded of
that little heartshaped stone
I found for you that day

just like that lil rock
my heart is full
of pits and scars
but the love it contains
is eternally yours

so put it up for safekeeping
for you see even a rock
left out in the open
can tend to whither away
but in the shelter of your love
me and my rock are here to stay
