Caroline Herring - Stone Cold World lyrics
rate me<br>
I'm a selfish girl<br>
<br>
In a selfish world<br>
<br>
Each town has her selfish ways<br>
<br>
And each girl has her selfish days<br>
<br>
Especially me<br>
<br>
Longing to be free<br>
<br>
From all the old complaining crew<br>
<br>
And all the new ones moaning, too<br>
<br>
Then there was you<br>
<br>
Smiling when I couldn't smile<br>
<br>
Drawing me to tears<br>
<br>
Feeling out these aches and pains<br>
<br>
Because nothing here comes easy<br>
<br>
In this stone cold world<br>
<br>
For a selfish girl<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
You're a pioneer<br>
<br>
Headed for Newfoundland<br>
<br>
Each land has his newfound joys<br>
<br>
And pioneers must be big boys<br>
<br>
Especially you<br>
<br>
Longing to be true<br>
<br>
To what your people came here to do<br>
<br>
And who your mama said you could be<br>
<br>
Then there was me<br>
<br>
Crying when I wasn't sad<br>
<br>
Slouching in my shoes<br>
<br>
Damning expectations<br>
<br>
Because nothing here comes easy<br>
<br>
In this stone cold world<br>
<br>
For a selfish girl<br>
<br>
I saw the tip of an iceberg explode<br>
<br>
But I'm no tourist in this deep blue sea<br>
<br>
Off that hard rock shore<br>
<br>
In this stone cold world<br>
<br>
For a selfish girl <br>
<br>
