Premiered in February 2014, “Love Me Like I’m Not Made Of Stone” is the first single from Lykke Li’s third studio album, I Never Learn.
Li’s butter-smooth voice creates a lighters-up arena ballad in the vein of Cyndi Lauper’s “Time After Time,” despite the noticeable language barrier in the lyrics:...
[Produced By Björn Yttling, Greg Kurstin & Lykke Li]
[Verse 1]
There's a heart I cannot hide
There's a beat I can't deny
When it sings, when it lies
When it cheats, when it bribes
There is a war inside my core
I hear it fight, I hear it roar
Go ahead, go ahead
Lay your head where it burns
[Chorus 1]
Even though it hurts, even though it scars
Love me when it storms, love me when I fall
Every time it breaks, every time it's torn
Love me like I'm not made of stone
Love me like I'm not made of stone
[Verse 2]
A devil's hand across my heart
As we dance through the dark
Go ahead, go ahead
Love me deep, until you can't
[Chorus 1]
Even though it hurts, even though it scars
Love me when it storms, love me when I fall
Every time it breaks, every time it's torn
Love me like I'm not made of stone
Love me like I'm not made of stone
[Bridge]
Love me hard until it heats
Will you love my scars, so I can heal?
[Chorus 2]
Even though it hurts, baby, scars
Love me when I fall
It breaks baby, it's torn baby, every storm
Love me like I'm not made of stone
Love me like I'm not made of stone
Love me like I'm not made of stone
