Heart Within The Stone

One more day

I’d give a life, an age, I’d pay

To see you again

In your prime, so much potential,

Such a shame you ran out of time

Without a real goodbye

Without the answers

I can’t move on…

It’s too hard

Why?

 

There’s a heart within the stone,

Beneath the layers of rock, a soul

What people saw wasn’t you

You just found it hard to break through

I understand

But now I’m left with empty hands

I thought you’d be here to guide me

Now I’m left without you beside me

 

The only one

Who understood me, stood by me

Through the thick and thin

When patience wore thin, you were there,

You cared, without you I’m scared

I hate to admit it

I feel so human

So vulnerable

Susceptible

Why?

 

Those tears were bound to erode

That face, that beautiful mask of gold

What people saw wasn’t you

You found it so hard to break through

Your mask made good your escape

One of many in the masquerade

You thought she’d be there to hide you

But didn’t you know she was behind you

The whole time

 

There’s a heart within the stone,

Beneath the layers of rock, a soul

What people saw wasn’t you

You just found it hard to break through

I understand

But now I’m left with empty hands

I thought you’d be here to guide me

Now I’m left without you beside me
