Heart Of Stone

Lyrics

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  
We're dreamers in castle's made of sand  
The road to Eden's overgrown  
  
Don't you sometimes  
Wish your heart was a heart of stone  
Look at the headlines  
Big crowd at the crazy house  
Long cue for the joker's shoe  
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 a heart 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 ask the river for a sign  
(In a dream, we go on together)  
How long is love supposed to shine  
(In a dream, diamonds are forever  
But you and I, hurt together, hurt alone  
  
Don't you sometimes  
Wish you heart was a heart of stone  
Mercy, mercy, wish your heart was a heart of stone  
(With a heart of stone, you'll be well protected)  
  
Don't you sometimes  
Wish your heart was made of stone  
(With a heart of stone, you'll be well connected)
