Heart of Stone

Beneath the white fire of the moon

Love's wings are broken all too soon

We never learn

Hurt together, hurt alone

Don't you sometimes wish your heart was a heart of stone?

We turn the wheel and break the chain

Put steel to steel and laugh at pain

Where dreamers and castles are made of sand

The road to Eden's overgrown

Don't you sometimes wish your heart was made of stone?

Look at the headlines

Big crowd at the crazy house

Long queue for the joker's shoes

Ten rounds in the ring with love

Do you lose and win

Or win and lose?

Sweet rain, like mercy in the night

Lay me down, wash away the sorrow

Caress my soul and set it right

Lay me down, show me your tomorrow

Summer tears, winter, and the moment's flown

Don't you sometimes wish your heart was made of stone?

Mercy, mercy, wish your heart was a heart of stone

Get the picture

No room for the innocent

Peak season in lonely town

Knocked out of the ring by love

Are you down and up

Or up and down?

I asked the river for a sign

In my dream we go on together

How long is love supposed to shine?

In my dream diamonds are forever

But you and I, we hurt together, hurt alone

Don't you sometimes wish your heart was a heart of stone?

Mercy, mercy, wish your heart was a heart of stone

In a heart of stone, you'll be well protected

Don't you sometimes wish your heart was made of stone?

In a heart of stone, you'll be well protected

Mercy, mercy, wish your heart was a heart of stone

In a heart of stone, you'll be well protected

Don't you sometimes wish your heart was made of stone?

In a heart of stone, you'll be well protected

Mercy, mercy, wish your heart was a heart of stone
