Heart Of Stone
Unyielding Heart: The Resilience in the Face of Love's Trials
Lyrics
There's been so many girls that I've known
Reflecting on past relationships and experiences with various girls.
I've made so many cry, and still I wonder why
Acknowledging a history of causing emotional pain to others, questioning the reasons behind it.
Here comes a little girl, I see her walking down the street
Noticing a new girl walking down the street.
She's all by herself, I try and knock her off her feet
Expressing a desire to captivate her, possibly romantically.
But she'll never break, never break, never break, never break
Emphasizing the resilience of the girl's heart, asserting that it won't break easily.
This heart of stone, oh no, no, this heart of stone
-What's different about her I don't really know
Expressing uncertainty about what sets this girl apart.
No matter how I try, I just can't make her cry
Despite efforts, unable to make her cry, indicating her emotional strength.
'Cause she'll never break, never break, never break, never break
Reiterating the girl's unbreakable heart, emphasizing its stoniness.
This heart of stone, oh no, no, no, this heart of stone
-Don't keep on looking that same old way
Advising against pursuing the same old approach in relationships.
If you try acting sad, you'll only make me glad
Suggesting that feigning sadness won't affect the speaker positively.
Better listen little girl, if you going walking down the street
Warning a girl about walking down the street, implying the speaker is emotionally unavailable.
I ain't got no love, I ain't the kind to meet
Stating a lack of love and an unwillingness to engage romantically.
'Cause she'll never break, never break, never break, never break
Repeating the theme of the girl's unbreakable heart, asserting it won't be broken.
This heart of stone, oh no, no, you'll never break this heart of stone darling
-No no this heart of stone
Reiterating the idea that the speaker's heart is unbreakable.
You'll never break it darling
Asserting that the girl won't break the speaker's heart.
You won't break this heart of stone oh no no no
Repeating the sentiment that the girl cannot break the speaker's heart.
You better go, you better go home
Advising the girl to go home, reaffirming the invulnerability of the speaker's heart.
'Cause you'll, you'll never break this heart of stone
-You better, you better drive on home
Further emphasizing the girl's inability to break the speaker's heart.
