My heart is like a stone

My love locked away deep

Your gentle words of passion

Are no longer mine to keep

My walls are so thick

My heart so cold and hard

I can't accept your love

You're gestures ignored and barred

Your kindness so sincere

Your words so sweet

But I cannot take the risk

My heart won't accept defeat

My emotions deep inside

My heart so tightly sealed

This fear of love, of pain

Will never be revealed.
