"Pocket Full Of Stones" - lyrics

He is leaning on the sign post
He's got nothing left but time
He is just another old man that people pass by
But across the busy midway
A little boy's been watching him
He walks up and says hey mister,
don't you have a friend

And the old man gently smiles
And the boy is not afraid
He says, I want to share my treasure
It might make everything okay

I've got a pocket full of stones
All of them are lucky
They might guide you home
They're not make believe
This one is for love
That's what momma says we all need
Here why don't you take some
You might need 'em more than me

What's your name, the man says Charlie
And the boy says mine is Pete
Take as many as you want, sir,
I'll find more down at the creek
You picked a good one, that one's laughter
And look, this one stops the rain
See my mom over there watching
She likes the white one, it's for grace

Charlie's eyes filled up with tears
Just knowin' someone cares
Pete just gave the gift of kindness
And played God's angel unaware

I've got a pocket full of stones
All of them are lucky
They might guide you home
God gives them for free
This one is for love
That's what momma says we all need
Here why don't you take some
We all need em don't you see
