Elephant Stone Lyrics by The Stone Roses

The Stone Roses (20th Anniversary Collectors Edition)

1988

[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Burst into heaven
Kiss in the cotton clouds
Arctic sheets and fields of wheat
I can't stop coming down
Your shrunken head
Looking down on me above
Send me home like an elephant stone
To smash my dream of love
Dreaming till the sun goes down
And night turns into day (Night turns into day)
Rooms are empty, I've got plenty
You could move in right away
[Chorus]
Seems like there's a hole
In my dreams
In my dreams
In my dreams
[Verse 2]
Down through the heavens
Choke on the cotton clouds
Arctic sheets and fields of wheat
I can't stop coming down
Your shrunken head
Looking down on me above
Send me home like an elephant stone
To smash my dream of love
Didn't your bed and bookshelf go
And run, run, run away (Run, run, run away)
These four walls saw the rise and fall
And your midnight getaway
[Chorus]
Seems like there's a hole
In my dreams
Or so it seems
Yet nothing means anything
Anymore
[Instrumental Outro]
