Sinking Stone

I've been falling hard as a sinking stone

Since you hit me clear to the bone

I prayed with all my might I could forget

Just how sweet your kisses taste

You were straight right from the start

Said you'd only go and break my little heart

Now I'd tell any lie, commit any sin

For you to kill me with your kindness again

Someday I wish I never held you close

We were closer to perfect than most I know

I'm sure there were others but I did my time

You delighted in them when you were rightly mine

You were straight right from the start

Said you'd only go and break my little heart

Now I'd tell any lie, commit any sin

For you to kill me with your kindness again

Now I'm waiting across the street

Got this smell of steel on my hands and

I'm hoping you'll surrender and you'll say

You'll be my man

I don't want to hurt you

But if I, if I have to I'll be able

Without you I am nothing

My cards are on the table
