Promise you'll wait for me
Swear I won't be gone for too long
See, there's things I gotta see
But it's something I must do alone
Like a rolling stone
I'm rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin'
Like a rolling stone
Ever since I been gone we've been driftin' apart
As time passes on, distance grows
When I finally get home, we go back to the start
See, I never meant to be a rolling stone
What do they want from me
Only here for a second, then I'm gone
It drains my energy
Such a long and winding road
Like a rolling stone
I'm rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin'
Like a rolling stone
Ever since I been gone we've been driftin' apart
As time passes on, distance grows
When I finally get home, we go back to the start
See, I never meant to be a rolling stone.
