Broken Stones
"Broken Stones" is a song by English singer-songwriter Paul Weller, released in September 1995 as the fourth single from his third solo album, Stanley Road (1995).

Weller was inspired to write the track after a conversation he had with his son at the beach, with the idea that people were like broken stones trying to become whole again.[2]
