Stone

Recently got hold of a Prince song which I think is called 'Stone' but I can't find any info about it anywhere. The chorus goes something like: "you used to be the best of me, you were the only one...{something} the rest of me, {something else} of a stone".

Is 'stone' the right title?

'Stone'is thought to be the title. I'm not sure if it has been verified through the Library of Congress yet.

Is it the one that goes:


U used 2 b the best of me
U were the only one
Eye watched U walk Ur life
when all Eye did was run

U put me on a throne
then left me all alone
and watched me turn 2 stone...



???


Sorry, I don't know nothing about that one

lol

If my memory serves me right 'Stone' was recorded during the 'Emancipation' sessions.

It's a great track, and it's funny how this reminds me so much of Michael Jackson's cover of 'Come Together' by The Beatles.
