Lyrics
Heart Of Stone
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If the last thing I see is your face
If the last thing I feel is your embrace
Then I would not be afraid
I would go to a happy grave
If the last thing I see is you
Should I suddenly disappear
Or linger on for 100 years
I would know no fear
I would taste no bitter tears
If the last thing I see is you
Old heart of stone, help me forget it
Old heart of stone,
do you think she meant it
Old heart of stone,
somehow I've always known
That I'd regret it
If I could have one wish
It would be that you remember this
Know that I did not stray
For you were there to guide my way
you and your beautiful face
If I should fall would you give chase
Would you follow me
Or find someone to fill my space
And keep you company
If the sun refused to shine
If it called for rain till the end of time
I would not lose faith
I'd sail my soul to a warmer place
for you and your beautiful face
