Brenda's story of love lost and a girls determination to find her own life and her own love.
Lyrics
Weeds And Stone
1.
That night there was a rare and icy rain
It cut the sky and filled the air with pain
As their child was born, his wife’s life drained away
His heart broke into shards of glass and the baby girl would pay
For every ounce of love he owned, was lost for good that day...
And left his heart forever icy cold
An empty shell, a man without a soul
Chorus:
She was born and raised in a land of weeds and stone
A barren place where love was never sown
She longed for a ray of light
To brighten up her eternal night
And free her from the only life she'd known
Weeds and stone, weeds and stone
2.
After fourteen years she left his ice-cold care
She knew there had to be a world out there
She stopped to strip away the weeds that hid her mother's stone
Then went to find a better place that she could make her own
A place full of love, where she would not feel alone...
And make her heart forever free from cold
A woman child within a woman’s soul
Chorus:
She was born and raised in a land of weeds and stone
A barren place where love was never sown
She longed for a ray of light
To brighten up her eternal night
To be freed from the only life she'd known
Weeds and stone, weeds and stone
Bridge:
Six years later, her husband held her hand
As their first child was born she knew he’d understand
Why she had named their girl, Sara Ellie May...
A name scratched on a stone so far away
A name scratched on a stone so far away
Last Chorus:
She’d been born and raised in a land of weeds and stone
A barren place where love was never sown
Now she had two rays of light
That brightened each day and night
And freed her from the only life she'd known
Weeds and stone
Weeds and stone
Weeds and stone
