Stone Walls
You always said a penny for my thoughts,
Well I’d be rich if that were true
I’d trade all of them, to walk alongside you
Run my hand against our stone wall
Stone walls remind me of the beauty in my life
When times are troubled those stone walls can crush away my strife
But most of all they make me think of you
Remind me of those specials days with you
Stone walls, Stone walls
Remind me of you, Remind me of you, Remind me of you
Going to bed and thinking of Grand Daddy
He would have been 99 years old today
Lay down my head, eyes close, I go to Glenamaddy
Back to the fields I would walk to escape the trials of my day
He would walk those same wet fields
And often I would walk alongside him
Cap on his head as we watched the sheep move slowly from the shed
We would lean against a stonewall
Stone walls remind me of the beauty in my life
When time are troubled those stone walls can crush away my strife
But most of all they make me think of you
Remind me of those specials days with you
It happens when I pour my cup of tea
Visions of these memories come racing back
Hear the church bells ring as I’m sweeping up the ash
You’re praying the Angelus
