lyrics

Well isn't this a nice surprise?
I didn't see it coming with my eyes
Nor with my ears I didn't believe
The rumours that I could be free

For I heard those lies so frequently
That it seemed they must be truth to me
The rumours you spread
Had not yet reached my heart

When I was a stone cast into the sea
Untouched and untouching no one will ever find me
This is my country. This is my home.
When I am alone.

The darkness grows wherever it lives
And it takes and it takes and it never give
I was trapped so long
I never thought I'd leave

The darkness held me down so long
That my lungs were sore and my breath was gone
So how do you just tell me now to breathe?

When I am a stone cast into the sea
Untouched and untouching no one will ever find me
This is my country. This is my home.
When I am alone.

Well hello my friend we meet again
I knew that I'd feel better when
I saw your faces smiling down on me

And with you here I breathe again
For there is no fear with you my friend
And love's sweet life now flowing through my veins

No longer a stone cast into the sea
I am touched and I am touching you
You've finally found me
I'll be your country. You'll be my home.
Now I'm not alone.
