Lyrics
(Gary Burr/Robin Lerner/Franne Golde)
I was supposed to be the rock that you could stand on
Stronger than an old oak tree
But all you ever wanted was the one thing
I never let you see -
The tender side of me
I tried to be a mountain, solid and strong
All it took was your leaving to know I was wrong
A man ain`t made of stone
A man ain`t made of steel
The way I feel right now
I thought I`d never feel
Sometimes all it takes
Is facing the night alone
And that`s when you know
A man ain`t made of stone
In this world of mine
There was no room for weakness
I covered every crack in the wall
But there ain`t no way that I can keep this secret
Cos when you go like Jerico I fall
You thought I wouldn`t shatter
Would I even care?
But there`s more to what I`m made of
Than this broken heart can bear
A man ain`t made of stone
A man ain`t made of steel
The way I feel right now
I thought I`d never feel
Sometimes all it takes
Is facing the night alone
And that`s when you know
A man ain`t made of stone
Sometimes all it takes
Is facing the night alone
And that`s when you know
A man ain`t made of stone
That`s when you know
A man ain`t made of stone
