The Rock I'm Leaning On

(album: You've Got Somebody - 1979)

When I wake up in the morning
You're the first thing on my mind
And I don't know why he treated you unkind
To him you were only another stepping stone
But to me you're the rock I'm leaning on

The rock that I am leaning on
Was always in his way
And I won't ever understand
Why he threw you away
To him you were only another stepping stone
But to me you're the rock I'm leaning on

You're my most prized possession
You were nothing at all to him
When he gave you up I took the best part of his life
If he had loved you better
You wouldn't be here in my arms
Oh but now you're the rock I'm leaning on

The rock that I am leaning on
Was always in his way
And I won't ever understand
Why he threw you away
To him you were only another stepping stone
But to me you're the rock I'm leaning on
