<b>Chiseled In Stone</b> by <i>Vern Gosden</i><br />

You ran crying to the bedroom I ran off to the bar

Another peace of heaven gone to hell

The words we spoke in anger just tore my world apart

And I sat there feeling sorry for myself

Then that old man sat down beside me and looked me in the eye

And said son I know what you're going through

You ought-a get down on your knees and thank your lucky stars

That you got some one to go home to

You don't know about lonely or how long the nights can be

Till you've lived through the stories that still living in me

You don't know about sadness till you've faced life alone

You don't know about lonely till it's chiseled in stone

So I brought these pretty flowers hoping you would understand

Sometimes a man is such a fool

Those golden words of wisdom from the heart of that old man

Showed me I ain't nothing without you

You don't know about lonely or how long the nights can be

Till you've lived through the stories that still living in me

You don't know about sadness till you've faced life alone

You don't know about lonely till it's chiseled in stone

You don't know about lonely till it's chiseled in stone
