Stone Heart Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't mean no harm
But I just can't keep from hurting you
Clinging to your arm, pull away
But there's no breaking through

[Pre-Chorus]
All these chains spill from my heart
Welded shut by my volcanic tears
Never tearin' us apart
Can't escape my love for fifty years

[Chorus]
You can run but you can't hide
I scratched my name inside your mind

You were trapped here from the start
'Cause I chiseled my initials in your stone heart
Never gonna be a memory (Ah-ah)
Always gonna keep you here with me (Ah-ah)
Our love is a work of art (Ah-ah)
'Cause I chiseled my initials
Chiseled my initials in your stone heart

[Verse 2]
My thoughts move fast
My heart beats slow
So these minutes feel like forever

Paint me with your empathy
So we can be together
[Pre-Chorus]
Build me up from dust and ash
I could never not love you, so
I'll do the one thing you ask
I love you enough to let you go


[Chorus]
You can run but you can't hide
I scratched my name inside your mind

You were trapped here from the start
'Cause I chiseled my initials in your stone heart
Never gonna be a memory
Always gonna keep you here with me
Our love is a work of art
'Cause I chiseled my initials in your stone heart

[Bridge]
(Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ahh)
Oh, your stone heart
(Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ahh) Ohh
I'm the ghost you never believed in
Could've loved you to the end
Oh, I broke up with all my demons
We're much better off as friends


[Chorus]
Oh, you can run but you can't hide (Hm-hm)
I scratched my name inside your mind (Hm-hm)

You were trapped here from the start (Hm-hm)
'Cause I chiseled my initials in your stone heart
[Post-Chorus]
Never gonna be a memory (Hm-hm)
Always knew you'd be the death of me (Hm-hm)
Our love is a work of art
'Cause I chiseled my initials, chiseled my initials
Chiseled my initials in your stone heart

[Outro]
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, Ohh)
Oh, your stone heart
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, Ohh)
Oh, your stone heart
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, Ohh)
Oh, your stone heart
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, Ohh)
Oh, your stone heart
