Lyrics
Jewel
Verse:
I got stoned down by the river
On the west bank with my toes in the sand
I was so alone I quivered
Like a beaten down dog under the porch
My thoughts were so tangled up I just could'nt get enough of anything
Verse:
I could see the lights of the carnival rides
Spinning around on the other side
Their reflections rippled on the water as the boats kept sailing on
My thoughts were so tangled up, I just could'nt get enough of anything
Chorus:
I was thinking of you and what I'd do if you were here and what I'd say
You know, I apologize for your loss of innocence
Could I tell the truth? Would I lie? Would I even look you in the eye?
Cause you're so pure, you're my jewel
You're so pure, you're my jewel
Bridge:
I could not bear to watch you go
There went my heart and soul
I could never be whole again, you were my friend
Verse:
I got lost down by the river
I could'nt seem to put all the pieces together
I just walked around and stumbled along hey I fumbled around with the words in my head
I said Christ Almighty what's wrong with me!
I can walk to the ocean but I can't even see
The sun beating down though I feel it's warmth
I was headed down south when I should a gone north
My thoughts were so tangled up
I just could'nt get enough of anything
Chorus:
I was thinking of you and what I'd do, if you were here and what I'd say
You know, I apologize for your loss of innocence
Could I tell the truth? Would I lie? Could I even look you in the eye?
Cause you're so pure, you're my jewel
You're so pure, you're my jewel.
