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 are
castles are made of sand
the road to Eden' s
is 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 dreams we go together)
how long is love supposed to shine?
(in my dreams diamonds are forever)
but you and I, we hurt together
hurt alone
don't you sometimes wish
your heart was a heart
of stone?
(in my heart you'll be well protected)
