Courtney Marie Andrews – Mistress Of The Stone lyrics

[Verse 1]
My thoughts are dirty
When there's no one in the room
If you were a lonely traveler like me
You'd be the same way too
I could have gone out dancin'
At the fancy opera house
Instead I ordered room service
I bought a ticket home, drunk-dialed my brother
And ignored every message from you

[Verse 2]
You say my desires are outlandish
That I'm weak-minded and half-true
It's just when you think you got a hold of it all
It all gets a hold of you

[Chorus]
But when I'm back in town
You won't see me hangin' around
'Cause I was who I was and I am who I am now

[Verse 3]
I heard you ran off with Penny Lane
Your Irish mistress of the stone
She calms your sailor mouth and keeps you sane
Makes your garden grow
When I'm back, I'll hear the useless talk
A piece of news on everyone
Those that are fixed, and those now that are lost
Those forever no one

[Chorus]
But when I'm back in town
You won't see me hangin' around
'Cause I was who I was and I am who I am now

[Verse 4]
When this highway ends I guess I'll write you back
We'll catch up and paint the town
When this highway ends, I'll guess I'll empty my sack
And meet you on your side of town
