Heart Of Stone Lyrics

I get away just for a while
I get to pine I get to cry
Being without you
You think my world is tumbling down

You know the reason I can't hurt
I got a heart of stone

I went away to meet my love
I saw things that I can't have
It makes me mad
To think of you with someone else

You know the reason I can't hurt
I got a heart of stone

I get away just for a while
I get to pine I get to cry
Being without you
You think my world is tumbling down

You know the reason I can't hurt
I got a heart of stone

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

To me this song is about heartbreak how you "Get away for awhile" and how it takes time to think things through before you actually feel anything and that's when you, "i get to cry"

You soon get over it and "Live my life" but no matter how much you say you have a "heart of stone" you still feel the hurt.

That's just my thought on it.
