S.O.A.P. Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

WHEN WE WERE KIDS
ME AND MY SISTER WE USED TO GO DOWN THE BEACH
AND COLLECT BEAUTIFUL STONES OUT OF THE WATER
BUT WHEN WE CAME HOME AND GOT THEM OUT OF OUR
POCKETS
THEY WOULD BE JUST AS GREAY AS THE STONES IN
OUR DRIVE WAY
AND THAT'S WHEN IT CAME TO MY MIND

AT THE RIGHT PLACE AND THE RIGHT TIME WE ALL
SHINE

LIKE A STONE

I HAD A DREAM I WAS A GREYSTONE ON THE
BOARDWALK
NOBODY EVER CAME MY WAY, NO NO
THEN ONE DAY OUT OF ORDER, I FELL INTO THE WATER
AND NOW I KNOW WHY THEY SAY
MIRACLES CAN HAPPEN EVERYDAY

IT DOESN´T MATTER WHERE YOU´RE FROM
KISS THE WORLD AND TAKE IT ON
YOU´VE GOT TO KNOW, YOU'VE GOTTA KNOW
SOMEDAY YOU WILL SEE THE SUN,
FROM A PLACE WHERE YOU BELONG
JUST LIKE A STONE IN THE WATER

I USED TO LOOK AT GUYS AND ALL THE WAY THROUGH
JUNIOR-HIGH
I WISH I WAS A BEAUTY-QUEEN YEAHH YEAHH
NOW I LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND I SEE IT CLEARER
MY LIFE IS NOT A MAGAZINE
BUT EVERYBODY IS ALOUD TO DREAM

IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE YOU'RE FROM
KISS THE WORLD AND TAKE IT ON
YOU'VE GOT TO KNOW, YOU'VE GOTTA KNOW
SOMEDAY YOU WILL SEE THE SUN,
FROM A PLACE WHERE YOU BELONG
JUST LIKE A STONE IN THE WATER
LIKE A STONE
JUST LIKE A STONE IN THE WATER

U CAN TELL, BY ONE LOOK IN MY DIRECTION, THAT
THERE IS NO PERFECTION
AND THAT MAKES US WHAT WE ARE
YOUR SUCCESS IS MADE FROM YOUR DECISION
BABY BABY LISTEN
THE QUESTION IS WHERE YOU ARE (WHERE YOU ARE)
EVERYONE CAN BE A SUPERSTAR

IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE YOU'RE FROM
KISS THE WORLD AND TAKE IT ON
YOU'VE GOT TO KNOW, YOU'VE GOTTA KNOW
SOMEDAY YOU WILL SEE THE SUN,
FROM A PLACE WHERE YOU BELONG
JUST LIKE A STONE IN THE WATER

IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE YOU'RE FROM
KISS THE WORLD AND TAKE IT ON
YOU'VE GOT TO KNOW, YOU'VE GOTTA KNOW
SOMEDAY YOU WILL SEE THE SUN,
FROM A PLACE WHERE YOU BELONG
JUST LIKE A STONE IN THE WATER
