Kiss me, darling. Say that you love me.
Even if you don’t mean it, I need to hear it
Baby, come on.
Cos sometimes I feel there’s this weight hanging up above me
And I’ve been running, but my end’s been coming
For oh, so long
I just wanna walk with you, talk to you
Live in the house that I bought for you
Oh it’s killing me. Don’t know what to do
I’m lain in this state going crazy
Cos baby it’s hard, hard, hard loving somebody
When their heart, heart, heart is made out of stone
I tried so hard, hard, hard at making you want me
But my heart, heart, heart ain’t working no more
What do I do?
What do I do?
What do I do when you won’t hold me?
Acting so coldly, bruise me and scold me
It tears me apart
Oh, but the feeling’s so strong
I just long to behold thee
And if I should fall, I’ll stumble and crawl
To get back to your heart
I just wanna make up with you
Wake up to you
Hold you close and make love to you
Oh it’s killing me. Don’t know what to do
I’m lain in this state going crazy
Cos baby it’s hard, hard, hard loving somebody
When their heart, heart, heart is made out of stone
I tried so hard, hard, hard at making you want me
But my heart, heart, heart ain’t working no more
I just wanna make up with you
Wake up to you
Hold you close and make love to you
Oh it’s killing me. Don’t know what to do
I’m lain in this state. You’re breaking me, baby.
It’s hard, hard, hard loving somebody
When their heart, heart, heart is made out of stone
I tried so hard, hard, hard at making you want me
But my heart, heart, heart
Oh my heart
Oh my heart ain’t working no more
