HEART OF STONE
Copyright 1998 Michael E. Walker

Verse 1

Although I have said it
a thousand times before,
I still don’t regret it,
I need to know for sure.
And I’m gonna get it,
and hope that there’s a cure.
I feel so pathetic,
I should walk right out this door.

Chorus

I feel a weight upon my chest.
I think I need a little rest.
Because I need to see the answer in your eyes,
I’m not blind, I can see you heart of stone.

Verse 2

In the beginning,
everything was looking fine.
I thought I was winning,
until you showed your other side.
My head started spinning,
you didn’t even try to hide.
The ice never thinning,
you’re so cold deep inside.

Chorus (Repeat)

Verse 3

I tried not to let it,
but it caught me by surprise.
And I can see in it,
the anger you can’t hide.
Imagine for a minute,
that you could be my bride.
Now I’ve gotta win it,
cause my heart has never lied

Bridge

I tried hard not to want you.
But there’s just something about you.
If I’d of known earlier,
I’d end up just the same
Who’s to blame?
Now I share your heart of stone.

Instrumental (verse chords)

Final Chorus

So cold within my chest.
Frozen water in my breast.
You know you lured me with that
strange heart you possess.
Black and cold,
now I share your heart of stone.

Coda

Heart of stone.
You know you chill me to the bone.
Heart of stone.
Heart of stone.
If I could stand to be alone…
