Beneath the white fire of the moon
Love's wings are broken all too soon
We never learned to hurt together, hurt alone
Don't you sometimes wish your heart was a hard stone?
We turn the wheel and break the chain
Put steel to steel and laugh at pain
We're dreamers in castles made of sand
The road to Eden'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
Ten rounds in the ring with love
Do you lose and win or win and lose?
Sweet rain like mercy in the night
Take me down, wash away the sorrow
Caress my soul and set it right
Take me down, show me your tomorrow
Summer tears, winter and the moment's gone
Don't you sometimes wish your heart was made of stone?
Mercy, mercy, wish your heart was a hard 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 done?
Oh, up and down I ask the river for a sign
We're a team, we go on together
How long is love supposed to shine?
We're a team, diamonds are forever
But you and I, we're hurt together
Oh lord, don't you sometimes wish your heart was a hard stone?
Mercy, mercy, wish your heart was a hard stone
Don't you sometimes wish your heart was made of stone?
Mercy, mercy, wish your heart was a hard stone
Don't you sometimes wish your heart was made of stone?
Mercy, mercy, wish your heart was a hard stone
