Heart of Stone

Locked inside a fortress
Wall after wall
Pleading for a breath of air
Desperate dreams of freedom
Vaguely recalled
Nothin' in the world
That I wouldn't do
Give everything I own
Just to feel the blood in my veins

I need you to
Breathe on this heart of stone
Turn me to flesh and bone
Breathe on my heart of stone
And bring it back to life again

Oh, breathe on me

Barren halls and chambers
Cold to the core
Each one bleaker than before
And here amid the ruins
Of a broken man
I'm lookin' for the miracle
Of resurrection again

I need you to
Breathe on this heart of stone
Turn me to flesh and bone
Don't let it die
One chance and one alone
Breathe on this heart of stone
And bring it back to life again

Silent, the sculpture stands
Unseen in the stone
The sculptor is carving its prison away
And little by little, I feel it
There's no mistakin' it now
I can tell it's just a matter
Of waiting it out
Every day another wall comes down

And here amid the ruins
Of a broken man
I'm lookin' for the miracle
Of resurrection again

I need you to
Breathe on this heart of stone
I need you to breath on me
Turn me to flesh and bone
One chance and one alone
One chance and one alone
Breathe on my heart of stone
And bring it back to life again

Ooh-ooh, breathe on me
Oh-oh, breathe on me
