Lyrics Dwight Yoakam

Dwight Yoakam

Heart of Stone

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

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
