There are children living in the shadows
with eyes that are lonely and empty
There are people who have
lost faith in tomorrow
So I wonder just where
we have come to with our lives
and I wonder what now
just what can I do
and I feel so helpless and weak
[Refrain:]
Sometimes I wish I had a heart of stone
since then I would not have to cry
when I see all that happens on this earth
But then I think to myself it will change
with the power of our dreams
Who does not know feelings
will never be happy
Thank God, my heart is not made of stone
Only those who hear will not be silent
and only those who feel can also see
Only those who believe that honesty wins
can understand the lie
And in the darkness of life
hope sets afire a light
and with it changes a lot
With the courage to feel
humanity comes back into sight
Refrain (x2)
Thank God, my heart is not made of stone
