Broken Heart of Stone

You gave me this broken heart of stone,
But now I cry, and now I moan.
I got that pain, deep in my bones,
From my broken heart of stone.

And now I’m walking, well I said, “Shalom”
And people see me coming everywhere I roam.
And I just ain’t, I ain’t got no home,
Now that it’s broken, this heart of stone.

Hey baby, just leave me alone,
Can’t play your games, it’s all unknown.
Cause that woman, she knocked me prone,
And she pummeled my heart of stone.

“Svarga mem taya,” the wind seems to yawn,
But I’m still yellin’ “Well now it’s gone!”
I got no hope to dream upon,
Because she crushed my heart of stone.

Now I’m leaving to be on my own,
I got no appointments that I gotta postpone,
And for my sins, well I must atone
If I ever want to fix my heart of stone.

But these feelings I just can’t disown,
Looks like I’ll always have a cracked heart of stone.
