Heart Of Stone Lyrics

I'm not afraid to be alone

I'm standing here in winter cold

The ice is in my bones

I'll build a heart from stone

I'm not looking for anyone

Just streetlights and a place to run

Would the wind still chill my soul

If I built a heart from stone?

They say that I'm naive and young

And that I'll keep falling in love

But I don't think I can take it

If I give them my heart they'll break it

And I wish I could drown it out

But the Northern lights aren't coming down

They're a pretty disguise for the evil cold

So I'll build a heart from stone

If I turn blue I'll build a fire

It won't last, but it'll see me through the night

I'll sit by candlelight

In the snow with my heart of stone

Feelings come and feelings go

I said I'm not afraid to be alone

The truth can rest and get no sleep

How can I lie so easily?

I walk in circles, get nowhere

And wonder how the light stays there

I swore that I would always keep

The streetlights and the same heartbeat

I don't know quite what I'd become

If I built a heart from stone
