[Verse 1]
You were out there on the river road
Dusty boots and a denim coat
Picking up pieces that nobody saw
Just you and your little stone haul
You showed me every fossil
Every shard
Said “I like the ones that look a bit scarred”
You laugh and say you like what others drop
You collect rocks… and somehow I got caught
[Chorus]
Zero nine one four
Written in my head
Like the letters on your dashboard
Glowing soft red
You took a heart that was cracked
Turned it into gold
You collect rocks
And then you took hold
Of a broken little stranger standing in that parking lot
You collect rocks
But baby I’m the one you got
You collect rocks
And somehow out of all you sought
You found me
And you became my rock
[Verse 2]
Coffee cups on the window ledge
Little geodes by our tangled bed
You say the world leaves treasures in the dirt
I say it left you right here on this earth
We drive past that old county line
Your hand in mine fits just right
“Funny how a stone can start to talk”
You smile and say
“Funny how you learned to walk”
[Chorus]
Zero nine one four
Written in my head
Like the letters on your dashboard
Glowing soft red
You took a heart that was cracked
Turned it into gold
You collect rocks
And then you took hold
Of a broken little stranger standing in that parking lot
You collect rocks
But baby I’m the one you got
You collect rocks
And somehow out of all you sought
You found me
And you became my rock (oh yeah)
[Bridge]
Every pebble on your windowsill
Every promise that we’re keeping still
If I lose my way
I don’t have to look far
You’re steady as the sky
Solid as the stars
[Chorus]
Zero nine one four
Carved into my soul
Every year it just shines a little more
You took a heart that was cracked
Turned it into gold
You collect rocks
And then you took hold
Of a broken little stranger standing in that parking lot
You collect rocks
But baby I’m the one you got
You collect rocks
And somehow out of all you sought
You found me
And you became my rock
