[Verse 1]
I wGake up evCery morFning with a new resolve
Two Ghands and Cone heart, lFet the world revolve
OnGe eye to thCe ocean and one to the sky
OnGe life of Cdevotion and Fwhere am I?
OnGe heart to Clove withiFn my chest
OnGe life to CliveF  
[Chorus]
FI keep skipping stGones, hoping for a chaCnge
But things just stay the sFame
I keep walking roadGs, looking for a Emhome
That I can call my oFwn
SFkipping stones
I'm sGkipping stones
I'm sCkipping stones
I'm sFkipping stones
[Verse 2]
OnGe chance to reach out and find a place for me
One chance to Cfind love for aFll humanity
OnGe eye to Cthe mountain and onFe to the sands
OnGe dime foCr the fountain and Fone for my hand

[Interlude]
Love is not a product of reasonings and statistics. It just comes â none knows whence â and cannot 
explain itself
Love is a madness, if thwarted it develops fast
When you fish for love, bait with your heart, not your brain
[Chorus]
FI keep skipping stGones, hoping for a chaCnge
But things just stay the sFame
I keep walking roadsG, looking for a Emhome
That I can call Fmy own
