Cover art for Melt My Heart to Stone lyrics by Adele

Right under my feet there's air made of bricks Pulls me down turns me weak for you I find myself repeating like a broken tune And I'm forever excusing your intentions That I give in to my pretendings Which forgive you each time Without me knowing They melt my heart to stone

every time she sees him she is weak. she repeats in her head that he must like her even if he doesnt look like that, hes just trying to hide his feelings. she forgets things that dont fit with this idea.

And I hear your words that I made up You say my name like there could be an us I best tidy up my head I'm the only one in love I'm the only one in love

she imagines him saying that he is in love with her. he says her name like he loves her but deep down she knows he doesnt. she is trying to convince herself she is the only one in love.

Each and every time I turn around to leave I feel my heart begin to burst and bleed So desperately I try to link it with my head But instead I fall back to my knees As you tear your way right through me I forgive you once again Without me knowing You've burnt my heart to stone

each time she tries to stop she gets a heartache. she tries to pretend it is just her brain and not her heart but she fails and cant do it. he breaks her heart but she forgives him.

And I hear your words that I made up You say my name like there could be an us I best tidy up my head I'm the only one in love I'm the only one in love

Why do you steal my hand Whenever I'm standing my own ground You build me up, then leave me dead

shes asking why he has to make her feel like this, why he gets her hopes up and then crushes them.

I hear your words you made up I say your name like there should be an us I best tidy up my head I'm the only one, in love I'm the only one in love

she hears him saying what he actually says and talks to him like them becoming a couple is inevitable but she knows that is never going to happen because she is the only one who feels that way
