"Stone" lyrics

"Stone"

I don't wanna kiss you
I've already kissed you
And you said "Kiss me again"
And all the hills were rolling
And all the clouds unraveled
Looked down upon our shadows
Looked down upon our history
And then you came towards me

But my heart has turned to stone
What if my heart has gone?
The world is weary, tired enough
I need help to hold this love

What was it that you told me?
That you'd learnt to unfold me
To read my heart like a map
To throw it away and bring it back
No-one in this house is sleeping
We lie awake just listening
For something human, something apart
To hear something other than our own hearts

My heart has turned to stone
What if my heart has gone?
The world is weary, tired enough
I need help to hold this love

My heart has turned to stone
What if my heart has gone?
The world is weary, tired enough
I need help to hold this love

But the words just grind me down
When your tears just tire us out
When the words just grind us down
