Beneath the white
fire of the moon
Love's wings are broken
all too soon
We never learn
how to get on
all 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
laugh at the pain
We're dreamers
in castles
made of sand
The road to ride on's
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
Turn around in the ring
with love
Do you lose and win
or win and lose?
We pray for 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 as the
moment's grow
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
Big seas
are a long way down
Knocked out
of the ring
by love
Are you down
and up
or up and down?
I asked 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)
You and I...
We hurt together
hurt alone
Don't you sometimes
wish your 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)
