Sacred Heart Of Stone — Carole King

SACRED HEART OF STONE by Gerry Goffin & Carole King

Sacred heart, sacred heart of stone Even the sword of love cannot penetrate you Sacred heart, sacred heart of stone I used to love you Now I think I hate you

When I was younger I believed your lies Your shield and armor that would not compromise You won your war with a ghostly kiss Whoever thought it would come to this Sacrd heart, sacred heart of stone

Sacred heart, sacred heart of stone Maybe if I saw you shed a tear The feeling of love might reappear

You're all alone now You've got nothing to fear It'll be your own doin' To survive in the ruin

I think it's time for me to turn away You invented the world we're living in today When you inherit the earth and all its gold It's not my hand you will get to hold Sacred heart, sacred heart of stone

Sacred heart, sacred heart of stone Even the sword of love cannot penetrate you Sacred heart, sacred heart of stone I used to love you Now I think I hate you Sacred heart of stone
