Dwight Yoakam - Heart Of Stone Lyrics

[Chorus:]
This heart of stone sure is missing you
Sure is wishing you were back where love belongs
This heart of stone has not forgotten you
But broke while trying to pretend that it was strong

Memories have made its will grow tired and weak
Silently it turned from being bold to meek
'Til finally it gave into a sad defeat
Aching more and more with every fragile beat

[Chorus:]
This heart of stone (heart of stone, heart of stone)
Sure is missing you (heart of stone, heart of stone)
Sure is wishing you (wishing you)
Were back where love belongs
This heart of stone (heart of stone, heart of stone)
Has not forgotten you (heart of stone, heart of stone)
But broke while trying to (trying to)
Pretend that it was strong

Loneliness has slowly stripped it of its pride
Leaving just an empty well here behind
Without a hope of any way it could survive
Stranded there alone and simply left to die

[Chorus:]
This heart of stone (heart of stone, heart of stone)
Sure is missing you (heart of stone, heart of stone)
Sure is wishing you (wishing you)
Were back where love belongs
This heart of stone (heart of stone, heart of stone)
Has not forgotten you (heart of stone, heart of stone)
But broke while trying to (trying to)
Pretend that it was strong

But broke while trying to pretend that it was strong
