You and I know I had to leave Under harbour lights, I could not see That you were my rock, never my stepping stone I held my tongue, I turned on my heels I couldn't look back I want you to know, that you were my rock never my stepping stone You were never a stepping stone We both know I cannot come home The water rose faster than I could run Oh my load has bruised my grieving bones Forgive my sins for I haven't found God And I don't know when I can trust my heart But you were my rock, never my stepping stone You were never a stepping stone You were never a stepping stone She said I'll be your rock when the water comes Don't waste your life on the stepping stones; She said I'll be your rock when the water comes Don't waste your life on the stepping stones; She said I'll be your rock when the water comes Don't waste your life on the stepping stones You were never a stepping stone You were never a stepping stone
