You used to be the best of me

You were the only one

I watched you walk your life

When all I did was run

You put me on a throne

And left me all alone

You watched me turn to stone

Sweet lover's song

Is why we used to sing

Songs from the book of love

We laughed at everything

We gave from May to May

We gave through night and day

Now who can say why we're cold

With nothing left but stone?

Stone

Nothing left but stone

The thirsty leaf says

Autumn's in the air

What's left of love is

Dangling somewhere

Shouldn't we cherish it

And treat it with respect?

Hanging around so long

There ain't nothing left

Sweet lover's song

Washed away the dirt

Songs from the book of love

That healed our every hurt

We gave from May to May

We gave through night and day

Now who can say why we're cold

With nothing left but stone?

Stone

Ain't nothing left but stone

Should we go our seperate ways

Or give this one more try?

What is there left to build on

When love's foundation dies?

Seem like we could work this out

Last time I checked we're grown

Take your icy hand

And press it on this heart of stone

Stone

To be loved

To be loving

Isn't it what you make it?

Isn't it when two people give more than they're taking?

Isn't it when a woman deserves a savior

And a man comes running

With the only hand that can save her?

Lives are special things

Without being told

But you can feel the heat

Even in the cold

Let's spend it growing old

With nothing left but stone

Stone

Nothing left but stone

Stone

Seems like we could work this out
