| Okkervil River – A Stone Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I agree that the song is a man singing about a woman he loves who is still in love with someone else. However, I think that the "stone" refers to a gravestone, and that the woman is still in love with someone who has died. The line, "And you love most to be told that it's all your own," refers to her previous lover belonging to her forever b/c he died while he was in love with her. But I feel what is most telling is the final verse that talks about how she is still in love with that man and can't forget about him b/c he was the first to capture her heart. | |
