Idle Tales Lyrics - Wilderness - Cowboy Junkies

Whether it starts with an earthquake 

or the tears of a few grieving women 

I don't know 

On the road to gathering 

looking for someone to roll away the stone 

he stands alone in her room 

as the commotion slowly decays 

I don't know 

she's on her way to somewhere new 

looking for someone to roll away the stone 

It's these idle tales that we need to keep us moving 

these tales keep us going 

it's these idle tales that we need to tell our children 

these tales are for our children 

She stands upon an empty stage with a song she was born to sing 

she's on the road again

It's these idle tales that we need to keep us moving 

these tales to keep us going 

it's these idle tales that we need to tell our children 

these tales are for our children 

whether it starts with an earthquake 

or the tears of a few grieving women 

I don't know
