I think you know
That it's not my way
And I can't hold back
What I've got to say
Wanna tell you what I'm going through
As I see it in your eyes
You're feeling the same way too

CHORUS:
Seems like we've been waiting so long
And lately it's been coming on
Much too strong
The way that I want you
The way that I need you
I'll keep you here just
As long as I can keep you
We can have everything
If you love me tonight
It's gonna be alright tonight
We've gotta break away
We've gotta break away

I can't hide what I
Been feeling all along
'Cause deep inside you know
We can't be wrong
I've decided now the rest
Is up to you
Don't keep me waiting
Tell me what to do

CHORUS:

Don't keep me waiting
Knowing you'll say that you want to
Tell me you want me
As much as you know
That I want you
We can have everything

Oh yeah
We can have it all
If you love me tonight
It's gonna be alright tonight
We've gotta break away
We've gotta break away
Tonight, tonight
It's gonna be alright tonight

. . .



Can you hear me
Now I've found you
Standing there in the lonely night
Many times I
Tried to reach you
But you closed your doors
And you closed them tight
Come down before it's too late
Anyone can see you're just
Looking in your eyes
Tell me you're satisfied
With the price you must pay
Everyday, everyday

CHORUS:
Heart of stone
Heart of stone
You can't make it on your own
Heart of stone
Heart of stone
You can't make it all alone
Breaking this heart of stone

Are you dreaming lost forever
In the fantasy
That world of your own
Time is passing now or never
Can't you see you're
A long way from home
Wake up it's been too long
Won't you see that
It can't go wrong
Just can't understand why
You make it this way
Everyday, everyday

CHORUS:

Ever wonder whoever thinks it's right
To fill the empty
Place inside of you never do
Ever wonder when you're turning 'round
If everything you need to know
Is what you're learning from
It's to you, yeah, yeah

CHORUS:

Heart of stone

. . .



I'm in love I can't lie
Got a feeling that I just can't hide
More than the world, more than good
You said you love me
And I knew you would
Somehow I knew you would
Somehow I knew it, oh yeah, yeah
Look what you're doing for me

CHORUS:
Well I found your love
I wanna stay around your love
I can't pretend to love
Everything I say
I'm gonna use your love
I don't wanna ever lose your love
I can't refuse your love
You're everything I need to me
And the night has me calling for you

It's no dream, I know it's real
No one tells me what it is I feel
Let me know, it's understood
You said you love me
And I knew you would
Somehow I knew it, oh yeah, yeah
Look what you're doing to me

CHORUS:

I'm gonna use your love
I don't wanna lose your love
I can't refuse your love
You're everything to me
Don't wanna lose your love
I never wanna lose your love

. . .



Sit down darling
Something I need to say
I know it's gonna hurt you
But we can't go on this way
I can't bear the pain I'm going through
I can't feel the tears you cry
But I swear if this means losing you
That a part of me will die

How can I tell you
What this heart of mine would say
When everything I feel for you
Has turned my head away
I never meant to hurt you
Even though I don't know why
But I swear if this means losing you
That a part of me will die

And I could not stop loving you
I couldn't do that if I tried
When I told you all you meant to me
It was true, I never lied
Lord knows you've done everything
To keep me satisfied
But I swear if this means losing you
That a part of me will die

Oh I swear if this means losing you
That a part of me will die
I swear if this means losing you
That a part of me will die
Baby I know if this means losing you
That a part of me will die, oh oh

. . .



Angels heard me callin'
Saw the mountains crumble
Fell in love with the wind
And all the time I spent
Dreamin' of you
And all the love we made
But I never knew I found you

CHORUS
I can feel love fallin', fallin'
I can see it comin', hey
'Cause heaven sent you down to me
Heaven sent you down

Oceans re conforming
To pave the way before me
Revealing your flawless aura
I saw your wings unveil, inviting to me
A world of love
But I wasn't even looking for ya baby

CHORUS
You became rain in the air
When you appeared to me
Like a love mystery, feels so real to me
'Cause you came from heaven
Sent down straight to me
And there's not another that ya can love
Oh I can feel it fallin'

CHORUS

. . .



I don't know what it is you got
But it's plain enough to see
Whatever it is sure
Means alot to me, oh yeah
I try to turn and walk away
But it does no good, I've gotta stay
This feelin' that you give
Won't let me be, oh no

CHORUS:
You really got a hold on me, yeah, yeah
I can't live without your love
I can't live without your love
I can't live without your love
I don't know what it is you give
But I can't live without your love

Everywhere I see your face
Even though my foolish pride
I must admit I've got
No place to hide, oh no
You're even living in my mind
It's getting to the point where I find
A day without you is like
A long lonely ride, yeah, yeah

CHORUS:

Way that you're coming to me
Amazes me to no end
I turn my back on your love
And people tell me now
That I look like
I done lost my only friend, yeah

I don't know what it is you give
But I can't live
I don't know what it is you give
But I can't live
I don't know what it is you give
But I can't live without your love, yeah

I can't live without your love
( repeat 8 times )

. . .



You said it wasn't my way
To play my hand
And make you see
I always knew that one day
You'd turn around
And come to me

CHORUS:
And one of us could walk away
I know that life goes on
And on and on
But why don't we just stay
You know it's all right
Meet me around midnight
I'm countin' on you tonight
I'm countin' on you tonight
You know it's all right
Meet me around midnight
I'm countin' on you tonight
I'm countin' on you tonight

You knew it was a long road
We shared the pain and sacrifice
But if we had
To do it all again
You know baby, I'd pay the price

CHORUS:

You know it's all right
Meet me around midnight
I'm countin' on you tonight
I'm countin' on you tonight

CHORUS:

You know it's all right
Meet me around midnight
I'm countin' on you tonight

. . .



I was alone
My love was an endless night
You came to me
Lover you made it right
I understand sometimes
It may not show
So I'm taking the time
To let you know

CHORUS:
I'm aware of your love
( repeat 7 times )

A heavy load
Upon me every day
But with your smile
You've taken it all away
I've never been a man
Of many words
But can't you see now
I'm trying to say

CHORUS:

You are the inspiration
Of every word I say
I swear sometimes I know
You try to give me death to pay
The way you hold me in the night
You make me feel all right
This is the only way
To tell you I'm trying
Baby I'm trying, I'm trying
I'm trying, I'm trying

. . .



Well it hurt enough
When you told me you were leaving
Did you have to go
And break this heart in two
By writing me a letter
I must have read a thousand times
Saying you'll be back
When I'm ready to spend
My life with you

And I'm not ready to settle down
But for you, maybe I would
But for you, maybe I could
So I find myself alone
By the beach where many nights we stood
And I think about this life
I really do live
But it's hard to change
A man like me
Who knows what he wants
And he knows what he sees

And someone like you
Will take all the love I've got to give
And I'm not ready to settle down
But for you maybe I would
But for you maybe I could

So a part of me says, boy
You're talkin' like a fool
When you've given all you've got
To give what they have
And it's hard to change
A man like me
Who knows what he wants
And he knows what he sees

But a love like this
May never come again I know
And I'm not ready to settle down
But for you maybe I would
But for you maybe I could
For you maybe, maybe, maybe I would
Maybe, maybe for you
Maybe I would

. . .



Can you hear me
Now I've found you
Standing there in the lonely night
Many times I
Tried to reach you
But you closed your doors
And you closed them tight
Come down before it's too late
Anyone can see you're just
Looking in your eyes
Tell me you're satisfied
With the price you must pay
Everyday, everyday

CHORUS:
Heart of stone
Heart of stone
You can't make it on your own
Heart of stone
Heart of stone
You can't make it all alone
Breaking this heart of stone

Are you dreaming lost forever
In the fantasy
That world of your own
Time is passing now or never
Can't you see you're
A long way from home
Wake up it's been too long
Won't you see that
It can't go wrong
Just can't understand why
You make it this way
Everyday, everyday

CHORUS:

Ever wonder whoever thinks it's right
To fill the empty
Place inside of you never do
Ever wonder when you're turning 'round
If everything you need to know
Is what you're learning from
It's to you, yeah, yeah

CHORUS:

Heart of stone
