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 sometimesWish 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 overgrownDon'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 winOr 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 flownDon't you sometimes
Wish your heart was a heart of stone
Mercy, mercy, wish your heart was a heart of stoneGet the picture
No room for the innocent
Peak season in lonely town
Knocked out of the ring by love
Are you down and upOr 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 aloneDon'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)
