Bed Of Stone Lyrics

She’s been sleeping on a bed of stone

By a window where no light goes

She wakes to the row of the traffic rumbling outside

Then she remembers her dream and smiles

Yeah she smiles

On her dress she irons the folds

Same way mama told

Her brothers and sisters

All the way home

And proud of the way she fights hardship alone

Some hope that they’ll let go

Some hope that they don’t know

Which way will the wind blow

What will tomorrow bring

What will tomorrow bring

On her feet from dawn tonight

Working jobs others don’t like

Sometimes she wonders if… they know that she’s there

The way that they talk to her

Look through her stay here

Almost all the money she has

She saves for the day she returns

She goes through leftovers

When the market is closed

Without caper she knows the police

Will send her back home

Some hope that they’ll let go

Some hope that they don’t know

Which way will the wind blow

What will tomorrow bring

What will tomorrow bring

Which side of the road will you land on

What end of the card will you pass down

Nobody knows there’s no right way for you

Nobody knows there’s no runway

Aha ha ha

Ibi aiye yi gbemi nlo

Mi o mo

Oyi lo oyi lo

Some hope that they’ll let go

Some hope that they don’t know

Which way will the wind blow

What will tomorrow bring

What will tomorrow bring
